Crook Peak Adventure – Sunday 18th May
Join us for a fantastic day out exploring the beautiful Crook Peak and its surrounding areas on Sunday 18th May, starting at 09:30 for both walks. Dogs are welcome, but when we tested the routes, we found they needed to be on lead quite often due to livestock and adders.
There are limited car parks for both routes, but they will fill up quickly, so car sharing is recommended where possible. We can double park ourselves in if needed for the route we choose.
