The walk
This is a wonderful walk which, whilst there is a significant and very steep climb and ascent, this is more than worth it for the reward you will get along the way. The highlight of the walk is Lord's Seat where you will have an amazing vantage point to stop and take in the views all around.
From here it is downhill all the way. You will pass along a grass ridge to Mam Nick and the final leg will take you across fields and over rivers back to your starting point.
The best option for refreshments is in Edale a short drive away. Here you will find a cafe and two pubs to choose from.
