Overview

Classic Peak District ramble over hills and dales, we'll descend to Lathkill Dale, then climb up through Over Haddon and over the hills to Bakewell, where we'll have chance to stock up one of their famous tarts (or puddings if you prefer the traditional delicacy) and take a break at a cafe or pub. We'll then return over the hills and dales back to Youlgreave.
