A good leg stretching walk with the reward of some awesome views. We depart the coach and make our way towards a steep path up to Bamford Moor, this is one of several short but steep inclines. The ascent to this point is rewarded with stunning views over the Ladybower Reservoir, the Hope Valley and the River Derwent. We then continue to climb onto Bamford Edge where we will take our coffee stop overlooking the beautiful valley below. After a long descent into Bamford we cross the River Derwent on the stepping stones and footbridge at Bamford Mill stopping for perhaps some photos in a truly pretty spot. We will then take the Thornhill trail to the end of Ladybower which we cross making our way to The Ladybower Inn for a lunch stop. After lunch we have another short sharp incline to take the track that follows the edge of Ladybower until we reach the Fairholmes Visitor Centre where toilets and a snack kiosk are available. Our coach will be waiting for us there.
