Overview

BOOKING REQUESTED

We descend to the Goyt valley and walk along past the Errwood reservoir then ascend past Errwood hall to the Tors. Then along past Pym's Chair and Windgather rocks to descend past Taxal church and back to the start.  Risk assessment: From good paths, a quiet road, to moorland. Some stiles.
