Description We head out of the village via The Limestone Way till we get to Fern dale where we head down the dale and into Lathkill Dale. We then head up the side of the dale towards Ricklow Quarry & keep high until we come to Mill Dale where head down & join Lathkill Dale. We now head for Alport, at this point we will be walking on the pavement for a short distance & cross the road heading up the side of the hill towards Baltic Wood. We will then head towards Over Haddon passing ‘Norton Barn Trig’ we need to give it a hug on the way; it’s the right thing to do.
Onwards to Bole Hill, where there is another trig Bole Hill trig but it’s on private land so we’ll have to give it a miss, I can tell you’re already sad about missing this one. We will pass through Magpie Mine, stopping to admire the huge chimney & then it’s the last leg towards Monyash where beer awaits at reasonable prices in The Bulls Head.

Come along and enjoy a day out :-)
