  • Distance: 10 miles (16 km)
  • Please bring your own food and drinks
  • Time: 5 hours approx
  • Difficulty: Moderate, with uneven, rocky paths and some boggy moorland

This, our final Geo walk, follows the classic climbing edges of Burbage, Froggatt,
Curbar and Baslow; descending into Padley Gorge and Bar Brook en-route to our
end point at the Robin Hood Pub. Here we will have a celebratory drink. By this
time in October we should have some beautiful autumn colours to admire and
great views across to Higgar Tor, the Longshaw estate and the Derwent valley.
As this is a linear walk car sharing will need to be arranged beforehand.

Please let me know if you are coming so I can facilitate this.
