Bromlow Callow and Stiperstones

Meet at 9.45 for a 10 am start, at Stables Inn, Hopesgate.

A bit of gentle meandering around the countryside before a steady climb up to Bromlow Callow.

Then a zig-zag down to Hope, crossing the main road and across country, and a bit up and down, across to the Stiperstones before turning back and down Crowsnest Dingle.

Then we have a slightly more gentle cross-country route to the Hope Valley Nature Reserve, up through the woods and back to the pub for a well-deserved beverage.

Or we may do it in reverse.

The route is about 13 miles, with a few long or steep climbs (and one both long and steep!), total ascent about 2,400 feet.
