Full description:
Start the year with a nice walk! Starting off at Fox House (of course) and heading up to White Edge, along and down to Curbar Edge maybe via the coffee van if it’s not too busy, Froggatt Edge and back through Longshaw to the pub.

We’ll stop for a picnic somewhere en route, so bring the last of those leftovers (or a salad).

Warm clothes and a good pair of boots advised, it may be boggy in places.

Public transport or car sharing options:
No buses are running on New Year’s Day so please use Meetup comments to share lifts. As few cars as possible - it’ll be busy.

Be prepared:
Please remember to dress appropriately for the time of year, with plenty of warm clothes and waterproofs, as well as food and water. Further information on what to bring can be found on our website here: https://www.sheffieldwalkinggroup.org.uk/be-prepared
