(Hi)ke 05


Roll up, roll up; for the one you've all been asking for.......Lady Clough woods to Bleaklow moor and the Over Exposed crash site.

I'm finally giving in to demand and organising another trip up to this fantastic Peak District location. The first time we visited it was a beautiful summers day; this time around I'm hoping for spring with a touch of snow. I guess we'll have to see how that works out.

We'll meet at 10am, just off Snake Pass/A57. From there the route takes us down into the pines of Ladyclough before rising out towards the vast expanse of Bleaklow moor. The walk should take around 3-4 hours depending on conditions and stoppages. The path is a little tricky in places so those that apply will need to be sure footed. Especially if the weather conditions stay the same as we've had lately. One of the easiest ways to see the current conditions in the Peak District is to view the webcams. You can find them HERE and HERE

Here's a few pictures from my previous visits. Some hot, some cold. Who knows what we'll get this time?

Sign up below for information on our meeting location and a few of the things you'll need to bring along
