There were no spaces on this walk until I checked before I went to sleep last night, when there was one so I bagged it.

As is often the case with my Ramblers, the pace was quite fast and, with the route going uphill for ever to start off with, I did wonder how I'd get on. It was a lovely and varied walk though, taking some new to me paths, and also some well known ones.

Lunch below The Hunting Tower overlooking Chatsworth House, a toilet stop in the posh ones at Chatsworth and back to Rowsley via the river and Beeley Village. 

I need to push myself!

On the drive home the sky was looking beautiful but there was nowhere to stop, so the extra is from the back bedroom!
