Walk description
This walk starts by following a flat trail through woods along the old Langsett railway before following tracks beside Underbank Reservoir. We cross the dam wall, before gradually ascending for 1.5 miles along farm tracks and moorland to Whitwell Moor. From here there are extensive views towards the Derbyshire Moors and South Yorkshire.
After lunch, the return walk is downhill as we go through a wooded area before descending along narrow paths, via Wind Hill Knoll for some lovely views of the upper Don Valley. For a short walk it has a good variety of landscape.
