We are the Rushcliffe Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A climb up to Harborough Rocks is worth it for the almost 360 degree views. The route leaves Wirksworth going up hill to the High Peak Trail and Middleton Top. Further on we leave the trail to cross fields with an uphill approach to Harborough Rocks. The route then continues down hill to Brassington then onwards to Carsington. We’ll then walk along a short stretch of Carsington Water before heading over the hills back to Wirksworth.
If you would like to join this walk please contact the Leader using the email link.
Please bring a packed lunch.
There are a few hills with some steep stretches.
The free car park in Wirksworth is small and gets busy so please car share if you can. To arrange car sharing try the Rushcliffe Rambkers WhatsApp.
There are toilets at Middleton Top where we’ll have a brief stop.
