This is a walk with views and hidden gems. A wonderful wander along the Sett Valley trail with many interesting species of flora. Then we head up-hill on to open moorland and bog before hitting the edge of calciferous limestone, then down into the sheep-shod valley of Edale.
Please wear appropriate footwear as some paths may be muddy and rough underfoot.
