I went up for a few days, to the Peak District as I’d heard about Mam Tor and the broken road, which had suffered various landslides and so eventually had been abandoned, and it interested me! And it didn’t disappoint!
And as happened, during that week Snake Pass had been closed to cars, as it had a few landslides though not as bad! So rode up that, lovely traffic free climb! And spectacular views!
I did also visit the plug hole! Which was flowing nicely!
Sadly next day was wet! So had Winnats Pass which is a spectacular gorge, and the moors over to the Monsal trail which is a old railway line in a gorge with a truly improbable and impressive amount of tunnels and Viaducts!
I was quite wet and cold by that point so very glad of the cafe in Miller Dale station!
Back over the moors to Castleton, I did have a wee wander up Cavedale gorge, and views to the Castle, again soggy!
