Overview

A rollacoaster of steep ascents and descents focussed on Whiteleaf Hill, The Hangings valley, Ninn Wood, Giles Wood and Brush Hill. This one's a real work-out and you will 'really get to know' Whiteleaf Hill. It will be similar to one in a series I last led nearly two years ago.

We'll eat on Brush Hill near the car park and if anyone has the legs left to continue with me after lunch, we'll finish off more moderately descending to the famous Plough at Cadsden for a drink before climbing back up to the carpark.

Please bring packed lunch, water, good boots and poles are recommended if you need them.
