Overview

Lyme Park circular to include Rock Farm Ridge, almost to Black Hill, Bowstones, towards Sponds Hill, Dale Top, West Parkgate and back along tracks and canal.

Mostly moderate, mud generally avoidable. We cross Mudhurst Lane twice - care needed - and a railway track once - even more care needed.
Bring food and drinks - no dogs thanks.
