Back in my favourite spot this morning - dodging t Back in my favourite spot this morning - dodging the bogs on Black Hill. I haven’t been up here for something like 8 weeks!! 😳 

It was super wet and manky, and I learned I need new hiking boots (again!). Great stuff 🙄

Quite a nice view of Mam Tor - not somewhere I go Quite a nice view of Mam Tor - not somewhere I go very often (because people) but I’m always glad when I’ve been. 

This was part of a 4.5 mile loop from Castleton up Winnats Pass, Windy Knoll, Mam Tor and Hollins Cross before coming back down the Liggate, the old coffin route to Edale. 

No hikes for me today, it’s a day of adulting and responsibilities - boring!! Hope you have a fun day.

Autumn is definitely one of the best times of year for hiking, don’t you think?

Have you visited Lyme Park yet? We walked a loop Have you visited Lyme Park yet? 

We walked a loop from the car park to the Cage, past the deer, up into Lantern Wood to the Lantern and then over to the Bowstones. We had planned to visit Sponds Hill trig but there were a load of vans there so we decided against it, returning back to the house via Knightslow Wood. A lovely autumnal 4.5 miles ☺️🍂

Get it on your Autumn walks list 🙌
