About the event
Come and join us in the Chew Valley situated on the Saddleworth Moors in the Peak district for an action packed day of great walking, scrambling and beautiful vistas! We start with a lovely section through Rimmon Pit Clough, taking in the impressive waterfall of Holme Clough as we proceed to the Raven stones for a superb photo opportunity on the iconic ‘Trinnacle’.
Moving along the ridge we see great views of a series of reservoirs below. Making our way round, we scramble up Charnel Clough before eventually reaching the foot of the Wilderness Gullies. Once again we are treated to a great scramble as we then make our way back via Chew Reservoir, Ladlow Rocks and following the Pennine Way to Black Hill and back to the start.
A hard, memorable day, with many highlights to live long in the memory!

HOW FIT DO I NEED TO BE?
Not climbed a Mountain before? Don't worry, you don’t need to be an athlete to enjoy mountain climbing in the UK, but a reasonable level of fitness will certainly enhance your experience. Here are some key points to consider:
Basic Fitness: You should be comfortable walking for several hours at a steady pace. Regular walking or jogging can help build your stamina.
Strength and Endurance: Some strength in your legs and core will be beneficial, as mountain paths can be steep and uneven.
Cardiovascular Health: Good cardiovascular health is important. Activities like brisk walking or using a stair climber can improve this.
Flexibility and Balance: Flexibility and balance are also helpful. Stretching exercises and yoga can improve your flexibility and balance.
Mental Preparedness: Mental resilience is key. Being prepared for a challenge and having a positive mindset will help you enjoy the climb.
Your Guide will ensure your safety, providing support and advice throughout the journey. Remember, the goal is to enjoy the experience and the stunning views, so we will take it at a pace you are comfortable with so you can have fun!
