Walk the Ethels: Back Tor & Lost Lad

In celebration of Ethel Haythornthwaite and 100 years of CPRE Peak District and South Yorkshire, we are leading guided walks up the many Ethels on land cared for by the National Trust. The Ethels are 95 hills in the Peak District named in tribute to Ethel Haythornthwaite, who founded CPRE Peak District and South Yorkshire in 1924 (then called the Sheffield Association for the Protection of Rural Scenery.) Her activism saved Longshaw Estate from development and helped establish the Peak District as the UK’s first National Park in 1951. Join us on a circular walk summiting Back Tor and Lost Lad from Fairholmes Visitor Centre. The walk begins in the shadow of the famous Derwent Dam before a steep ascent onto Green Sitches and on to Lost Lad, which offers stunning views of Derwent Valley and Derwent Moor. We'll then continue to Back Tor and follow Derwent Edge until we descend to Ladybower Reservoir and follow the shoreline back to the car park. This moderately challenging walk is approximately 8 miles and includes a steep ascent and follows an uneven footpath. The walk is not suitable for pushchairs or prams. Dogs on leads are welcome but there may be some stiles. Our walk leaders are incredibly knowledgeable, so please ask as many questions about the area as you like!

Spiritual Pilgrimage to Kinder Scout in the Peak District

Join us for a pilgrimage to Kinder Scout – a Holy Mountain charged with powerful spiritual energies. Tune in to the energy of this beautiful sacred place, be uplifted by its spiritual power and send out spiritual energy for world peace! Find out more about Pilgrimages to Holy Mountains: https://www.aetherius.org/pilgrimages-to-holy-mountains/ This pilgrimage will be followed by a relaxed social at a local venue – meet like-minded souls, chat with kindred spirits, and make new spiritual friends! When you register, your confirmation email will include information about travel, where and when to meet, and details about the social afterwards. The Service at the Charged Rock (near the summit) will be held at 12 noon. IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT PILGRIMAGES TO HOLY MOUNTAINS: Mountains are potentially very dangerous places. We recommend that if you have a long distance to travel, you arrive the day prior to a Pilgrimage at suitable local accommodation so as to have a good night’s rest before climbing the mountain on the following day. We strongly suggest having a good breakfast and drinking plenty of fluids before climbing. You should be well prepared for sudden changes in the weather – wear mountain boots, and carry both warm and waterproof clothing. Suitable headgear, sunblock, insect repellent, energy bars and water are all basic essentials but requirements will vary depending on the mountain and weather conditions.

More about Wash

Derbyshire, England

Wash sits right on the edge of Derbyshire where the hills drop away to meet the flatlands, making it perfect for a walk before dinner or a quiet pint after work. With no big venues to fill, the town relies on its community spirit and local pubs that know exactly which families live down the road. It is a place where neighbours actually talk rather than just wave at each other from their cars. The local hall often hosts something for the young ones, while the village green stays busy with markets or fairs depending on the season. There are always people around to help you find your way or recommend the best spot for a slice of cake. It is not about having every possible event under one roof, but knowing exactly what is happening in your own neighbourhood.
