It was quite a bit cooler at around 17°
and mostly cloudy with sunny periods so it was a lot more pleasant
walking today.
We left the car in the centre
of Hartington village and left the village following uphill passing
Hartington Hall Youth Hostel and then after crossing a couple of
fields, followed the stony track called Highfield Lane, until it
arrived at the minor road into Biggin and the top of Biggin Dale.
After following Biggin Dale we
eventually arrived at Wolfescote Dale and the River Dove. Here we
stopped for a few minutes for a drink and a snack and then made our
way along the dale to its end at a gate and small footbridge bringing
us to a large open flat section of pastureland.
On the other side of this
pastureland, we crossed a larger footbridge to arrive at Beresford
Dale. After walking along the Dove for a while,we left Beresford Dale
to again reach several fields of pastureland and a well-marked
footpath leading back to join the village of Hartington.
