Rivelin & Redmires Walk

This 12 mile walk takes us through a wonderfully varied mixture of scenery. Including fields, moorland paths, woodland paths as well as riverside paths.

The Rivelin valley's history spans from medieval deer hunting grounds to an industrial hub of powered by watermills, which were crucial for Sheffield's cutlery and steel industry. The valley is now a popular heritage trail featuring the remains of 20 watermills and 21 dams, with ongoing conservation efforts to preserve its industrial and natural heritage.

From Rivelin we will head up to the Rivelin Dams, through the enchanting valley of Wyming Brook, turning back through Lodge Moor back into the Rivelin Valley.

This walk has a mixture of woodland paths and rough pastures so care must be taken whilst walking. The ground will be muddy at this time of year.

Please come prepared with a head torch, water proofs, sturdy boots and refreshments.

Please read disclaimer before you RSVP.

If your plans change and your no longer be able to attend, please change your RSVP to NO, many thanks.

We are a group of like-minded adults who share the same interest, the great outdoors.
This a a guide to what we do and what we expect from our members.
Our leaders/event hosts are volunteers, they're there to guide groups on walks in the countryside, they're not responsible for each and every participant other than themselves.
It is expected that all participants to be fully responsible for themselves and their own safety, we do not employ first aiders or qualified walk leaders. Participants are also expected to attend every walk with suitable clothing, footwear and any other equipment, that includes waterproofs for wet weather and walking poles if you need them regularly. Enough food and drink for the day is also required.
Some activities in more mountainous regions such as the Lake District, Wales and Scotland, can be more challenging, our walk leaders will use the principal of the groups safety at all times and if the conditions dramatically change for the worse, they will reserve the right to end the walk and turn back. A full and concise descriptions of the terrain will be published in the event write up stating what to expect on the walk, terrain using the best of our knowledge. Also to give our members an insight of what to bring such as walking poles, crampons and wet weather gear.
