Details
Train Based Walk
Leader: Mark F
Difficulty: Moderate
Distance: 12.1km / 7.5mi
Ascent: 350m / 1148ft

This Edale circular walk is mostly low level and undulating. However, there is one long climb up to Hollins Cross to contend with. (for the views of the valley)
We follow mainly good paths, farm tracks and country lanes, however some of these may be muddy after rainfall and there are some stiles, so appropriate footwear and clothing must be worn.
We aim to meet up with the other (strenuous) walk at the end, at the Nags Head pub.
Meet Point: Near the ticket barriers, or on the platform at Piccadilly Station. Alternatively, meet the group on the train, or at the Walk Start at Edale main car park. (opposite the railway station)
