Sheffield Walking Group

A1 (6 miles): Starting in Deepcar, we then go across the crags, along the tops past Wharncliffe Side and towards Grenoside, coming out at the Jawbone. From the Jawbone, we will then make our way to Middlewood, and finish at the Tram Stop.

B2 (10 miles): Come and enjoy the historic landscape to the west of Donny! Starting in Doncaster, walk along the banks of the River Don before swinging north to take in the stately home at Cusworth Hall. Climb gently to Sprotbrough village, drop back to the river in the picturesque Don Gorge, and enjoy two wildlife-packed nature reserves. The walk ends at Conisbrough station: regular trains will take you back to Shef or Donny, or take a bonus trip to visit the spectacular Norman castle half a mile away.

A1 (6½ miles): We ease into the walk by heading west along the south bank of the Rivelin, before detouring across some farmland. We drop back to the Rivelin and cross before heading to The Rivelin Pub for a quick pitstop. It is then only a short walk back to the walk start.

C2 (24 miles): One of the classic long one-day walks to do at least once in your life. Camp in/near Horton-in-Ribblesdale in the Yorkshire Dales on both 20 and 21 August (or you can drive there from Sheffield and back on the same day if you want to and like getting up early). Start walking from Pen-Y-Ghent Cafe (SD808725) at 6am exactly in order to complete the walk in less than 12 hours (ideally much less) so you need to be able to walk an average of 2 or more miles per hour continuously all day. There are two drop-out points but you may have to wait there a long time before being picked up when the drivers have finished. There may be two groups for people with different speeds, depending on numbers. You'll need to train up for this if you haven't done a lot of walking recently and will need to carry all your own clothes, food and drink on the way. Don't use this walk to break your new boots in!

B1 (10 miles): After walking along the northern edge of the beautiful Moss Valley, we drop down into Eckington Woods and then head south-west to Hundall on the edge of the equally picturesque Drone Valley. The Cuckoo Way then takes us to Chesterfield Station for the train back to Sheffield.
