Update 13/9: "Route details Changed!
Following the recce, the route has been altered to reduce the amount of road walking on the B5055 which was busier than anticipated. This change has added about 0.6 miles/1km onto the route bringing the walk to approximately 10 miles /16 kms. The start point at Monyash is unchanged.
The GPX will be updated to show the new route."
This 9.5 mile moderate walk takes in some beautiful countryside as well as the geology of the area. Caves, springs and rivers, views and ice cream all guaranteed.
The walk has a couple of steepish climbs and some rocky terrain.
The route (subject to recce): Monyash - Bagshawdale - Lathkilldale - Haddon Grove Farm campsite - Grove Farm - Melbourne Farm - Over Haddon - Lathkilldale and waterfalls - One Ash Grange Farm (ice creams on sale from here - cash only) - Limestone Way - Monyash.
The pub is closed on Mondays but the café is open. Pints of tea available!
This is a mix of paths, tracks, lanes and bridleways with some rough paths. Poles advised. No dogs due to livestock in fields. Lift share from Cheadle Hulme/Bramhall.
