6 March

A walk that begins at Calver, parking by the school. Ref: 248 734, S32 3AX
is the postcode for the school. 9.45 a.m. for a 10.00 set off. From here we
take the Derwent Valley Way crossing New Bridge and then doubling back
for the footpath that takes us Knouchley Farm. Moving onwards to Stoney
Middleton, through the village to pick up the footpath leading to Coombs
Dale. Onwards to Black Harry Gate and around the water (optional). To
return we aim for Deep Rake and take a track North (ish) to go around
Calver Peak. This drops us in Calver. We then find the way through Calver
to Mill Farm, picking up the Derwent Valley Way and returning to the start
point. Almost 10 miles, bring a packed lunch, snacks, drink, total ascent
1612ft.
