Overview

BOOKING REQUIRED to receive last minute updates.

A moderate-plus walk.  Descend from village into Bradford Dale, heading west then south toward Long Dale. We eventually head north toward the village of Elton beyond which we enter the Limestone Way to pass by Robin Hoods Stride and head for Alport where the Bradford River joins the Lathkill River. We turn west along Bradford Dale to the start point. Risk assessment: Possible muddy paths and fields, and may be cattle and sheep.
