18miles 453.7miles. Finished at Pistol Farm!

Started going downhill into Chee Dale. Lovely lime stone escarpment. And back up through farmland and beautiful valleys,Haydale and Dam Dale. tea stop at Peak Forrest. Onwards and up along great bit of Pennine Bridleway contouring round the High Peak. Group of mountain bikers zoomed past cheerily- we overtook again on uphill. Really great route. Lunch at Hayfield and onwards for a few miles up and down Dale. Really great scenery all day, hard to capture.Read more
TravelerYou're a tough couple that's for sure, what with corns and blisters, pints and pasties to keep you going, travelling on paths that aren't even visible (do you use GPS?). Derbyshire is such a beautiful part of the world. Think some of the BBC Pride and Prejudice was filmed around there? Yorkshire next?

TravelerWhat an absolute laugh we had ‘running’ down into Hayfield. Our legs were out of control. Cackling like a pair of Pendle witches 😆
