Sheffield Walking Group

Roaches Rollercoaster walk rearranged due to lack of transport. Instead, we take this stroll along the flank of Hope Cross and up along the edge of Kinder Scout, finishing in Edale.

Our 6th year of doing this and, as always, an absolute doddle - we get off the bus at Moscar Lodge and bimble along Stanage with its great views of the Peak District. Hopefully ice creams at Burbage Bridge before the amble down Burbage Rocks to Fox House for many anniversary pints. NB Linear walk.

We go up to Burbage top then come back down the otherside of the valley from Higger Tor to finish off in the Fox House for drinks.

Time for the biggie! this walk is for those who feel they can cope with a challenge of 20 odd miles around the edges of Edale, including Lose Hill, Mam Tor, Rushup Edge, Kinder Edges, and Edale Cross before descending to Hope for a welcome few beers. Definitely one for those who like to suffer.

Around the Redmires reservoirs we go, a-looping around to Wyming Brook and a-back to the start again.  Can be muddy!

Follow the Grand Old Duke of Sheffield (well, Gary) and his ten thousand ramblers as he marches us up to the top of Win Hill and marches us down again.

(don't call during office hours)

Starting at the lay by at Barber Booth, follow the permissive path to join a footpath that leads us up to the Chapel Gate track. At the top turn north towards Kinder past Brown Knoll to Edale Cross, from here descending north west parallel to Broad Clough to Kinder Reservoir. From here ascend William Clough to the col between Kinder and Mill Hill. Head south east to Kinder Downfall, then into the bog through Kinder Gates, then with some bog trotting over to Crowden Clough and descending this to Upper Booth. Finally using the path just to the north of the River Noe to return to the cars.

A loop around the north ridge above Dove Valley along the limestone reef incorporating High Wheeldon, Hitter Hill, Park House Hill, Chrome Hill and High Edge before lolling back to Longnor via Booth Farm, Hollinslough and Hardings Booth.

Down Wyming Brook to the bottom, along the river to climb up and over the edge of Hallam Moors, near the Head Stone, to Redmires Dams. Back along the road to Wyming Brook.

From Crowden we head up to White Low and onto Black Hill itself were you will sink into the bog - a truly abhorrent place if it’s raining. From Black Hill we head to Raven Stones and its views of Oldham. Beautiful. WE then drop down onto Dovestone Reservoir before returning via Chew Road and the Pennine way.

Starting near North Lees Hall (the original model for Rochester's home at Thornfield Hall in “Jane Eyre'“), we descend into Hathersage along pleasant country paths before heading back towards Stanage Edge via Green’s House.

We head off down to the Don and Wortley Top Forge before climbing up to Crane Moor. A brisk stroll through Wortley park should see us back at the Wortley Arms by 9 (food served 5-9).

From Denby Dale station we head beneath the viaduct through woodland to reach Upper Cumberworth and cross fields to walk over the Penistone Line tunnel to Lower Cumberworth and head back to Denby Dale passing the White Hart Inn.

From Low Bradfield we head over the moor to Derwent Edge and follow this south past Back Tor. We then return to Low Bradfield along the side of the reservoirs.

Goyt to Taxal. We then climb up to Taxal Edge and continue over ridge to Windgather Rocks, Cats Tor and up to Shining Tor. From here we can take a short detour to the Cat and Fiddle Pub for refreshments before heading back down to Errwood and our start point.

From Monsal we head through Little and Great Longstone to Bakewell. After feeding the ducks we head to Magpie Mine, near Sheldon, where we can wander about the old mine buildings for a while before returning to Monsal Head via Deep Dale.

We take the Chapel Gate track from Edale station, following the ridge along Rushup Edge, over Mam Tor and on to Lose Hill. From there we move on to Win Hill and follow the ridge back round to our descent to Edale.

An easy 6 mile circular walk exploring the beautiful dales to the north of the River Wye from the 'cathedral town' of Tideswell. En route we visit Monks Dale, part of the Derbyshire Dales National Nature Reserve and the hilltop village of Wormhill, returning along the Monsal Trail via glorious Chee Dale.

Wander along Rivelin Valley, along to the Old post office and back. Then on to the Wetherspoons pub at Hillsborough Corner at the end.

We walk from Grenoside via Wharncliffe Crags, across the Little Don valley and along either one of the opposing and on to the finish at Bolsterstone (Castle Inn).

Postponed from last programme due to blizzards, we give you... An epic walk taking in a mostly high level route above and around Howden, Derwent and Ladybower reservoirs. From Heatherdene we cross the Ashopton viaduct and then up Crook Hill, across Bridge-End and Rowlee Pastures to Alport Castles. For the brave there will be an added extra going up The Tower, while the rest can admire the view. Next we drop down to Howden Reservoir and along the water’s edge on the western side to Slippery Stones, then down the eastern side to the top of Derwent Reservoir and Abbey Brook. We strike uphill again to Lost Lad, taking in the spectacular views from there, on to Derwent Edge before a final descent to the Ladybower Inn and a well deserved pint.

Starting in Hathersage, we head towards Leadmill Bridge and west along the Derwent for a wee while before striking up by Dunge Brook and skirting the edge of Offerton Moor. The route back is via Offerton Hall and the river once more.

Details coming soon!

From Hope station we walk east to Bamford garden centre, before heading north past the Yorkshire Bridge Pub to Ladybower Reservoir. We then skirt around the base of Win Hill, before turning to climb its north face. From the summit of Win Hill we have an easy walk down to Hope, where there is the option of a drink before heading back to Hope Station and home.

We head off over fields to Ashford in the Water from Monsal Head and along the Wye Valley to Bakewell (where the Tarts come from!). Crossing the River Wye, it's up to Great Longstone and over the Moor to Wardlow and then Litton. A short stretch from here gets us to Tideswell, famous for the Cathedral of the Peak (that's the Vicars!). Tidwswell Dale, Millers Dale and finally Monsal Dale are next, bringing us back to the start. (Fancy dress is optional).

We head up to Stoodley Pike monument via the Pennine Way. Then loop back round to Hebden Bridge and head out the other side up to Hard Castle Crags in Hebden Dale. Stop in the coffee shop in woods if time. Then back over the hills via Shackleton to Hebden Bridge.
