Ten people plus 2 dogs hopped on the very crowded 9.30 train from Hope to Edale. We set off at a brisk pace and ascended the Great Ridge, pausing at Hollins Cross for a photo opportunity. The descent to Castleton followed tracks and quiet lanes, with a brief stop at a shed snack shop. We found a very convenient cafe where the owners were not at all fazed by seating a large group. Here we re-fuelled and then set off across some boggy meadows alongside the river. At Brough we ascended through some woods and enjoyed great views down the length of the Hope Valley and down to Shatton. Joining the riiver once again, we then stomped through more mud to Leadmill Bridge and then a short stretch back to cars parked around Hathersage station. A linear walk of 9.5 miles completed. Well done all.
