Starting at Fox House pub, we will head out through a bog up to White Edge, follow the ridge along with views across the valley, drop down to Curbar Edge and follow Froggatt Edge back, where we will finish heading through Longshaw Estate back to the cafe / pub to finish. We will likely encounter bog and possibly will encounter herds of deer - one will be met with more enthusiasm than the other!
