Named for the three tors it encircles (Birch, Hookney and King) this walk is mainly open moorland with some testing uphill sections, farmland and farmyard, a short stretch of metalled road, woodland and, towards the end, a visit to the mystical Grimspound before an ascent back to the car for a visit to The Warren House Inn.

Be careful to follow the more established path at the Beehive Hut. Also take the track to the south of the heather when rising from Heathercombe: the OS map is wrong about the bridleway here.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
