    There is a climb of about 170 feet into Covert Wood that I have never done, so I don't know how steep it is, but from cycling in this area it could be quite steep.
    The 6.4 mile walk is mostly off-road, starting in Stelling Minnis and taking Paul's route to St. Mary's Church. We then cross the fields to Bossingham, before heading for Covet Wood, a walk I have never done before. After going through Covet Wood we reach Covert Wood where, after the climb, I will be back in familiar territory for the rest of the walk to The Duke of Cumberland in Barham.

    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.
