This is a linear walk from Edale to Hope. If the weather is kind we will have magnificent views of Kinder and also the Great Ridge, including the peaks of Mam Tor, Lose Hill and Win Hill. Our walk starts from Edale station and takes us via Hollins Cross and a path that skirts Lose Hill.
Please ensure you have the following:
A completed ICE card.
Good supplies of food and drink.
Very stout footwear.
Rainwear.
Poles are also recommended.
Transport options:
1. Park at Hope Station. Ringo 35736 £2.20. Catch 1039 train toward Manchester. The walk will not start until the train arrives. Scheduled at 1045.
2. Cheapest option. Park on-street in Hope village. Free on Market Place, Edale Road and side roads off, Sherwood Avenue and Castleton Road beyond Hope Garage if spaces are available. Catch High Peak bus 62 from Hope Post Office at 1009 to Edale. Bring bus pass. Avoid HPBC car park if possible as very expensive.
3. Park at Edale. The HPBC car park is Paybyphone and expensive. Edale Station carpark is £2.50 but there is limited space.
Return from Hope Station at 39 minutes any each hour, or if back early, catch bus 62 from Hope Post Office to Edale at 1409 (probably optimistic).
