Overview

The route starts at Great Hucklow then goes onto Hucklow Edge, Bretton, Bretton Clough, Abney Clough, Shatton, Hope Valley, Bradwell, Little Hucklow, Windmill and then back to Great Hucklow.

This is a bit longer and has more ascent than some of our Tuesday walks but is not over strenuous. There is one long steep descent but on a good path.
