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

This is a linear walk from Whirlow to Baslow taking in three Edges for great views over the countryside. It starts at Whirlow Brook going up the Limb Valley to Ringinglow, then through Lady Cannings Plantation, past the Ox Stones and onto the rim of Burbage Rocks. From there we walk down through to the Longshaw Estate to Froggatt Edge and Curbar Edge. We then drop below Baslow Edge walking past Lady Wall Well to Baslow Nether End to catch the bus back to Sheffield.
This walk involves crossing a small stream with stepping stones. There will be a few stiles. There may also be mud!
No dogs please.
Walkers should catch the 272 Castleton bus which leaves Sheffield Interchange at 09:45 am and alight at the Whirlow, adj Ecclesall Road South/ Limb Lane stop (by the Whirlow triangle). This will be our meeting point for the start of the walk.
There are toilets available in the Longshaw estate and in Baslow at the end of the walk where there are also cafes.
Estimated arrival time in Baslow is 4:15 pm in time to catch the 16:40 218 bus back to Sheffield.
