Full description: A short but hilly walk from Castleton, taking us to Winnats Pass, Mam Tor and Hollins Cross. There should be plenty of good views as the sun gets lower in the sky, although I don't know if we'll get to see the sunset itself.
Public transport or car sharing options: 272 bus from Sheffield Interchange leaves at 17:36 and arrives at Castleton for 18:41. Return buses are infrequent but keep running until late at night: you might have a long wait, but someone might be able to offer lifts back.
If you are driving and can offer places, please use the Meetup comments to arrange these.
Be prepared:
Please remember to dress appropriately for the time of year. A waterproof is always advised, as well as plenty of food and water. Please bring sun protection if required (sun hat, sunglasses, sun cream etc). Further information on what to bring can be found on our website here: https://www.sheffieldwalkinggroup.org.uk/be-prepared
