There are toilets and a refreshment kiosk available at the National Park Information Centre.
We will walk along the east side of Derwent Reservoir turning off by Hey Bank to walk around Howden Dean to Berristers Tor. (Possible coffee break spot). From there we will follow Sheepfold Clough up to Lost Lad and on to Black Tor. (Lunch hopefully). We then follow the edge passing Dovestones Tor, the Salt Cellar and Wheel Stones to Whinstone Lee Tor where we turn back north and follow the path down to the reservoir via Grindle Clough and return to the Information Centre along the road beside the reservoir.
17.1 Km (10.5 miles) Mod/hard in places
The route can be shortened near the end to 15.7Km (9.75 miles) or if the weather is very poor or we are flagging we can descend from just south of Black tor via Green Stitches to Hancock wood and the reservoir which is 12.9Km (8 miles)
There are two stretches of muddy and boggy ground between Howden Dean and lost Lad so gaiters are definitely useful. The walk is also quite exposed in places so warm layers essential.Contact juliS

Please respect the countryside and follow the Countryside Code

 

Dogs

 

Many club members like to bring their dogs along, and provided they are well-behaved and kept under control this is not usually a problem.  Dogs may be excluded from CRoW Access Land (except on rights of way).  Please check for any restrictions before bringing your dog.

 

Please remember that even where there are no bird restrictions, your dog may disturb ground-nesting birds,and other wildlife as well as farm animals.  Dogs found worrying farm animals could be shot. The Countryside Code has some specific advice for dog walkers.

 

Please always clean up after your dog.
