Alport Castles walk – 6th Feb

Feb 7, 2014
Six members met at Bridge End car park on an overcast but fine morning.

A breezy walk across Rowlee Pasture afforded fine views of Kinder Scout and the Woodlands Valley whilst the northern horizon was filled with the vast expanse of Bleaklow. The Eastern edges from Margery Hill to Stanage were all clear.

We admired the view from the Castles into the Alport Valley, and then descended into the calm of the Westend for lunch. A pleasant amble along the side of the reservoirs brought us back to our starting point, just as the rain began to fall. About 9 miles.

Thanks for your company.
Sean.
