Walk lead by Andrew Phillips, 6.7 miles long with about 1,500ft of ascent.
This walk starts in the village of Tideswell, where there are public toilets (voluntary donations). The route follows a country lane (probably not much traffic) to the village of Litton, where we will turn south across fields to Tansley Dale, crossing a number of styles. Where Tansley Dale enters Cressbrook Dale, we can take a short detour north to Peter’s Stone, before returning south along Cressbrook Dale to the hamlet of Cressbrook, where the route joins the valley of the River Wye, which is a deep valley with impressive limestone cliffs on either side. Hopefully the riverside path is not flooded, so that we can proceed along Miller’s Dale, before turning north along Tideswell Dale back towards Tideswell. There are toilets at the car park part way up Tideswell Dale.
