The Friends of the Peak District have developed the 190-mile Peak District Boundary Walk which opened on Saturday 17th June 2017. Sean Jennings has coordinated a CMC 50th Anniversary Challenge in which each of the stages of the Walk was done by some member(s) of the Club between then and the Anniversary Celebration weekend in October.
The Walk stages are listed below. Once someone had completed a stage, their names and date were included in the table in green. Names and dates in red meant that person was planning to do the stage.
