Overview

10 am start time from CP in Monyash, grid ref SK 149 666 (postcode may be DE45 1HE). Donations are asked for to park in the CP.

Route takes us out of the village into Lathkill Dale which we follow as far as Over Haddon. A steep climb out of the valley into the village. We cross the B5055 and walk across fields to Magpie Mine. From Magpie Mine it is mainly field walking back to Monyash.

At the end of the walk there is the opportunity for tea and cake at the Old Smithy.
The walk is between 8 and 8.5 miles, is moderate with only 1,000 feet of ascent. Expect mud and if wet the limestone will be slippery. Poles useful. Sorry no dogs.
