Ramblers

by Phil Barrowcliff

LAST Sunday's walk took in the delights of the Goyt Valley, Taxal Edge and Shining Tor.

Nineteen keen walkers started from The Shady Oak Inn in Fernilee and descended to the River Goyt before climbing over Taxal Moor to Taxal Edge and on to Wingather Rocks.

After a steady ascent to Shining Tor, we dropped down towards Goyts Moss and enjoyed a lovely woodland walk alongside Erwood and Fernilee reservoirs before finishing back at the Shady Oak where we enjoyed a well deserved drink and excellent hospitality from Mein Host.

Forthcoming walks: July 9 - strenuous walk at Bowfel & Esk Pike; July 17 - Whitendale in Bowland; July 20 - evening walk at Glazebury, meet at the Raven pub; July 24 - strenuous walk at Longendale Edges.
