  • The Edale Circular Walk a Cloudy Day in the Peak District Is Better Than a Sunny Day in the Office
    The Edale circular walk A cloudy day in the Peak District is better than a sunny day in the office. The Edale circular walk is a great walk and takes you via: Edale, the start of the Pennine Way, Upperbooth, Jacob’s ladder, Browne Knoll trig point, Rushop edge, Mam Tor, Hollins Cross and then back to Edale. Plan your day for this Edale Circular hike: Start/Parking: I always start at Edale car park. Grid ref 125854 (OS Explorer SL1). Enter S33 7ZA into your Sat Nav. As you reach Hope you should turn onto Edale road, after a few miles you’ll find the car park on the right just before you turn right into Edale village. The last time I visited (Nov 2013) the parking costs were £3.00 for 2 – 4 hours and £5 for over 4 hours - don't forget your £1 coins. Walk summary: I started the walk at 9.30am and got back to the car park at 2pm (4 ½ hours). I stopped a couple of times for a cuppa and a little lunch at Hollins Cross. The walk starts at 231m and the highest point is around 569m. There are a number of stys, rough tracks, steep hill climbs and steep descents - you have to be fit to attempt this walk. Guided walks: We have guides available for this edale circular walk to escort you on your walk. Our guides are very friendly, experienced hill walkers. They are also highly qualified first aiders. Obviously there is a charge for their time; the more there are of you the cheaper it will be.

From the magnificent Ladybower Dam and those famous plugholes, the route takes you along wooded trails beside the water, surrounded by sweeping hills. It then crosses the water to return on the other side, with wide open countryside views across to the vast bulk of the Kinder plateau. You return to your start point via the pretty slopes below Crook Hill, for a wonderful perspective on Ladybower Reservoir and the iconic viaduct. This is a walk of 8.1 miles.

  • Hagg Side and Crook Hill Estimated Time: 2:30 Hours Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 Map Sheet(S): 110
    Difficulty level: 2 (1 to 5 scale - 1 is easy) Distance: 9.00 km Ascent: 300m Hagg Side and Crook Hill Estimated time: 2:30 hours Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 map sheet(s): 110 This is a fairly short walk which follows a ridge between two arms of Ladybower Reservoir. It offers spectacular views of Ladybower and Derwent Edge, and also excellent views of Lose Hill and Win Hill. It starts and finishes at Fairholmes, the visitor centre at the north end of Ladybower. There is ample parking here and a bus service from Sheffield. You could combine this walk with our Derwent Edge walk to make a really long day (about 6 hours) and a complete circuit of the upper arm of Ladybower reservoir. Details at the end of this description. Ladybower from Lockerbrook Walk out of Fairholmes along the road back towards Ashopton and a few metres to the south a path branches off into the woods. Take this path, which follows a stream initially and then strikes off to the right, crossing by a small bridge the conduit which brings water from the Ashop river and climbing steadily up through the forest. Half-way up it meets a forest road - follow this round a large bend and then take the path which turns off left back into the forest. Towards the top the path has been re-routed to avoid the Lockerbrook farmhouse and it makes a sharp detour right before crossing a field and emerging on the old bridle path above Lockerbrook. Turn left and head down to the former farm, which now belongs to the Woodcraft Folk.

It is also a means by which others can check that our recommendations are justifiable in terms of the current understanding of West Yorkshire’s Historic Environment, and are being consistently applied. As the document is based upon current information, it is anticipated that future discoveries and reassessments will lead to modifications.

The clusters of sites in the Central Pennine uplands also show the highest density of known upland Mesolithic sites in the world (Preston forthcoming). • There is considerable potential for internationally significant sites to be recovered.

  • Cycling in the Peak District
    CYCLING IN THE PEAK DISTRICT About the Author Chiz Dakin’s cycle touring adventures almost happened by accident, when after a local photography trip by bike she realised that she’d done 50 miles in a single day with a reasonably heavy load. This led to the disconnected logic that if she could do that once, she was now ready to tackle multi-day cycle touring, and two weeks later set out on the Land’s End to John o’ Groats route. Since then she’s done several other multi-day trips including a pio- neering Welsh coast cycle route (600 miles and 16km of ascent) but still maintains that you don’t need to be seriously fit or fast to enjoy long multi- day routes. (She certainly makes no claim to being either!) She has pre- viously won an Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild award for her photography.
