Other walks in the area
Langsett and Midhope reservoirs
Departure from Langsett (South Yorkshire)
Easy walk that can be very popular around Langsett and Midhope reservoirs.
Cats Clough Head & Outer Edge
Departure from Langsett (South Yorkshire)
This Peak District walk explores the moors to the northwest of Sheffield and visits an area that sees relatively few walkers. Do select a clear day as navigation can be difficult in poor visibility.
Flouch & Winscar
Departure from Langsett (South Yorkshire)
This Peak District Walk follows sections of the Barnesley Boundary Walk and the Trans Pennine Trail in wild moorland. Route finding is generally easy and the walk uses well marked paths tracks and a section of minor road to explore the country at the eastern end of the now closed Woodhead Tunnel.
Broomhead Moor & Ewden Beck
Departure from Bradfield (South Yorkshire)
This Peak District walk is another route close to the western outskirts of Sheffield. The walk explores one of the valleys that run eastwards towards the Don - in this case the Ewden Beck. The start is close to Broomhead Hall.
Winscar Reservoir curcuit from Dunford Bridge
Departure from Dunford (South Yorkshire)
A Peak District walk that explores the open country and reservoirs to the nothwest of Dunford Bridge. This sector of the National Park sees fewer walkers and you are free to enjoy the superb scenery in relative peace and quiet.
Thurgoland Boundary from Oxspring
Departure from Oxspring (South Yorkshire)
The Thurgoland Boundary Walk is just under nine miles long and takes in part of the upper Don valley as well as some of the tributaries of the river Dove. The route includes a short section on the old Dove Valley railway above the Silkstone tunnels and the route crosses the old Woodhead rail route twice.
Broomhead & Howden Moors
Departure from Bradfield (South Yorkshire)
This Peak District walk explores the moors to the east of the Derwent Valley Reservoirs. Including some quiet paths and tracks, the route also visits the popular summit of Back Tor and the monument to the Lost Lad. This valley is particularly impressive and feels quite remote - considering how close it is to the thousands of people that are circuiting around Ladybower.
Back Tor, Bradfield Moors and Reservoirs
Departure from Bradfield (South Yorkshire)
This Peak District walk explores the moorland and resevoirs that lie between Ladybower and Bradfield. Walking is generally good but do expect some short boggy sections after heavy rain.
