    Hopefully there will still be spaces left in the car park. Meet Youlgreave car park SK 206 641. Drop into Bradford Dale, back up to Hopping farm, Rock Farm, Elton, Robin Hood’s Stride, and back to the cars on the other side of the river. About 7.5 miles.

    A group of six braved the usual traffic chaos in Youlgreave, and potential rain showers forecast for later during the walk. A gentle descent led into a quiet section of Bradford Dale before climbing up towards Elton. The bogs were smelly as ever although not quite so extensive as expected. Apart from a brief but heavy shower we had good weather and views, proceeding at a good pace to a finish in the slightly busier part of Bradford Dale. Despondency crept in when we realised that the YHA cafe had closed but an observant member spotted a sign to the bakery where excellent cakes were enjoyed.
