Overview

The walk takes us from Monsal Head, down through Monsal Dale, up Deep Dale then continuing south to Monyash. From there we continue east on road and field paths to Haddon Grove, then north to Sheldon. We then drop down to Ashford in the Water, before returning up to Monsal Head. Hopefully there will be some good views.
