Although it was -3C when I started my walk from the canal at Halton, the sun was out and I knew I would get warm walking up into the woods from Mansion Hill. What I didn't know was how spectacular it would be, particularly at the top. As no cars had been allowed into the woods since the heavy snow of last Tuesday, it was pretty much deserted. The car parks were a blanket of snow, and only a few hardy walkers had made it to the top.Thankfully, the cafe was open and I quickly consumed a welcome mug of steaming hot chocolate. The views over the snow covered Vale were outstanding. I cannot imagine a prettier place when it is traffic free.
