Longshaw & Stanage Edge

  • The Fox House Hathersage Road, Longshaw England, S11 7TY United Kingdom (map)

Joint walk with Get Your Boots On, the young people's walking group for North and East Yorkshire

A stunning hike in the Peak District, starting at the Longshaw Estate (National Trust) and visiting the pretty wooded valley of Padley Gorge, wildflower meadows around Hathersage, and culminating with the striking gritstone ridge and outcrops of Stanage Edge and Higger Tor. This is a walk that needs a lot of adjectives!

After the walk, we can head to the nearby Fox House pub for a drink and maybe a bite to eat as well. Well-behaved dogs are welcome, but will need to be kept on a lead where we are around livestock or on access land. There will be some very gentle scrambling – more sort of clambering, really – over a couple of rocky sections.
