Sutton Rambling Club: Gritstone Edges ramble, Sunday, August 16
The Sutton Rambling Club continue their fortnightly summer programme with a classic 12 mile gritstone edge walk in the White Peak.
There will be a shorter walk option usually available.
New members are most welcome and are not charged any coach fare on their first ramble.
In the morning, the coach departs from the "Staff of Life" pub in Sutton-in-Ashfield at 9.17am and from the Bancroft Lane end of Stockwell Gate outside Asda in Mansfield at 9.30am There are other pick up points en route
The coach fare is £14, accompanied juniors free.
The ramble starts from the Robin Hood pub on the A619 near to Baslow and we work our way along a series of the wonderful gritstone edges heading north westwards including Birchen, Blackstone, Baslow, Curbar and Froggatt edges.
We should be rewarded with beautiful panoramic views all morning.
We then reach the Grouse Inn and drop down into the National Trust Longshaw estate with refreshments and toilets available for our main lunch break at the cafe.
Duly refreshed, we then head for Burbage Bridge and take the track to Burbage Rocks.
Onwards then, up Higger Tor and across Mitchell Fields to High Lees to finish at the Hathersage railway station for a 6pm coach departure home.
