South Head from Bowden Bridge ¦ Derbyshire Peak District walk

Описание: Join us in this video on one of our regular trips to the Derbyshire Peak District village of Hayfield. Just a short walk of just under 6 miles, we start from the Hayfield Camping & Caravanning Club site near the Bowden Bridge car park. As the initial part of the route gently rises towards Mount Famine, stunning views open up across to Kinder Scout and along the upper Sett Valley.
On the day we chose to skirt behind Mount Famine, but it's easy to cross the summit if you fancy some extra exercise.
The final ascent of South Head is quite steep, but not too taxing. After admiring the panoramic views, we made the short but steep descent, and dropped back down to Hayfield along old walled tracks for some well earned refreshment! Following that, a short walk along Kinder Road or alternatively, the path beside the River Sett, takes you back to the start point.

A great short walk if you fancy something a little easier but still with stunning views. A few gates, but no stiles to contend with along the route!

Many thanks for watching!
