Follow this down to Spring House Farm.Īt this point decide whethet you want to head directly back to Castleton (6 1/2 mile route), or follow the longer route down to Hope with a riverside walk back to Castleton (8 mile route). Soon the path curves right past a group of trees just beyond them turn right, down to a stile and along the field to a track. Cross the next stile, just ahead, then follow the fence/old wall on your lett. From here bear right down the stone path to a stile. Continue along the path to the next high point, Lose Hill Pike, with excellent views all around. Go straight on here towards the craggy top of Back Tor, crossing a stile and climbing the short steep slope to the summit. From the summit, as you look down towards Castleton, go down the obvious path to your left until you reach Hollins Cross, the junction of several routes. Go through a gale on the right and follow the stepped path to the summit of Mam Tor.
Go through another gate and up steps to the road. Cross the road and go through a gate, then across the field to another road, through the gate opposite and up lhe hill. Follow the wall and go through a gate at the corner of the field, then straight on across the next field. Cross the car park in front of the cavern entrance and go through a gate to follow the path uphill t0 a farm, turning right at a signpost. Take ihe steps beside the cavern and turn right to walk along the hillside - to arrive at Blue John Cavern. This joins a track which leads to Treak Cliff Cavern. Cross the road and go through a gate (or over the stile) and follow the path that leads to the left, running parallel to the road. Beyond a bridge the lane curves up to the left then heads staight on to become a stony path beyond cottages. From the car park turn left up the main road, then first right by the Castle Inn, then right again on a narrow lane just past the Youth Hostel.
