We parked at the car
park next to Erwood Reservoir in the Goyt Valley not far from Buxton,
then followed a path along the side of the road heading West to the
viewpoint at Oldgate Nick.
There was a gate
leading onto a path crossing a section of moor, and we followed this
for a short way to then follow the minor road to Windgather Rocks.
It was about cool and
dry but windy, so Karen and I walked along the bottom of the rocks
passing quite a lot of rock climbers then sat in the shelter of a
large gritstone block to eat our lunch.
We then continued
onwards across fields the turned right following a path rising next
to woods until we reached the side of Fernilee Reservoir and followed
a path through woods along the side of the reservoir until we arrived
back where we started at the adjacent Erwood Reservoir.
