Health walks for all in the High Peak

Wednesday, 12 February 2020 11:56

High Peak Walks For Health resume on Thursday (13 February) with the weekly 10am 'progression' walk from outside Glossop railway station. 

The pace and distance switch to ‘easy’ next Tuesday. Meet at Brabyn’s car park (SK65DT), Marple Bridge, at 1.15pm for a 1.30pm start.

There's a walk that's described as 'strenuous' next Wednesday, which sets off from Castleton village car park (SK149 829) at 1pm.

Here’s a guide to help you decide which to go for.

  • Easy - lasting up to 90 minutes and could include some stiles and hill walking.
  • Progression - taking up to two hours and includes hill walking. It’s advisable to take a drink.
  • Strenuous - more challenging, up to three hours and usually featuring stiles, hills and rough terrain, but at a pace to suit.

Walkers should take a drink and a snack for a stop along the way.
