Walk description

Starting from the Visitor Centre Car Park at Castleton, we make our way up the steep ascent of Lose Hill and then along to Back Tor. Next down and on to Hollins Cross and an ascent of Mam Tor before a descent to cross the valley and use access land and paths back to Cave Dale and into Castleton once again. The walk will be familiar for most but perhaps from the other direction.
