On Thursday 6th we park on the road near Church Bridge in Dent (free) or P&D in Dent (£4.50 for the day).
Meet at the P&D car park – (possibly open toilets?) It is 8 miles, depending on the weather, a possible alternative shorter route if too much water! Head up Dragon Croft & then up the Flinter Gill path where there may or may not be waterfalls.
At the top we turn left onto the Green Lane. Depending on the prevailing weather, we can extend up to the Megger Stones for the view. Continuing along the Green lane we turn downhill towards Nun House Outrake & then across fields to Holly Bush & Deepdale Lane.
We follow the lane before turning off through fields & following Gastack Beck & then across a tricky ford (option to avoid & shorten the walk in wet weather or if prolonged rain that week).
We then head up to Mire Garth and continue across reedy / marshy fields back towards Dent, parallel to the lane, crossing Deepdale Beck again at Bigholme Bridge. Following the beck on the main path to Mill Bridge and the confluence with the Dee, we return to Dent at Church Bridge. Contact Sandra 015242 62416 or Bryn 07779001046

Turning east we head up to Waterscale, Meregill and Old Butt, before crossing the moor to reach Lower Hardacre. After crossing the railway and Skew Bridge, it is a short but steep climb to a track.
