Castleton

Second May Bank Holiday Weekend 2009

 

On our final day, we did a short 2-3 hour 7km walk near Castleton.

 

Castleton lies on the great geological divide of the Peak District, at the northernmost extremity of the limestone White Peak where it dips into the shales and grits of the Dark Peak (where Bleaklow and Kinder Scout are). 

 

A nice pretty walk before heading back to London.
