We are the Mid Staffordshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Starting at the Tideswell Dale Car Park, we head up & over into Millers Dale, up Monks Dale (long rocky path), via Wormhill (yup, a hill). Dropping down to the River Wye, and very briefly we're on the Monsal Trail. Entering Cheedale and the stepping stones beside the River Wye (impassable if it floods...). We traverse both sets of stepping stones. Each stone is about 12 inches (30 cm) square, and separated from the next by about 8 inches (20 cm), please see the photo (this is why it's graded Technical). Monk's Dale is now on the other side of the River Wye. We then travel along just 1.4 miles of the Monsal Trail to Litton Mill, then back up Tideswell Dale.

Please let the leader know you will be joining us?
The recce was done at the end of June, so the vegetation will have grown a bit, including some nettles & brambles on the less frequented sections, hence I suggest long trousers.
Tideswell Dale Car Park (Pay & Display). Google Maps knows this as 'Tideswell Dale Car Park - Peak District NP' Park under the trees for a cool car after the walk ;-)
