Overview

Starting in the tiny village of Earl Sterndale, this walk takes in Dowel Dale, Hollinsclough, and Glutton Bridge offering spectacular views of the distinctive Chrome and Parkhouse hills.  The walk leader will, no doubt, explain the interesting geology of these two peaks, which are commonly known as the Dragon's Back.
