Due to the wet weather and the muddy and wet conditions underfoot Caroline and I have changed our original walk plans.Friday’s walk will be alongside the Derwent Reservoir towards Howden Reservoir and returning by the same route.It is an easy 5 mile walk, with some good views and on a gravel path.Parking is at the Overlook Car Park, S33 OAQ which is on the right before the turning for Fairholmes Visitor Centre.It’s a by phone CP, see below for more detail…Lunch is at the Yorkshire Bridge Inn, Bamford.Can you let us know if you are walking and your menu choices are needed by Wednesday 5pm, please.Menu can be found on their website.10.00am start as usual from the Overlook Car Park.Leaders: Caroline Veal and Anne KnightsPARKING:
All Peak District National Park Authority car parks requiring Pay & Display now offer a quick and easy alternative to pay with your phone by using RingGo, the UK’s no.1 parking app.Late Pay Locations
There are a small number of our car parks where we know signal is an issue and we therefore allow payment to be made within 24 hours of parking. The sites only include:
- Derwent Overlook [RingGo 51707]
More: https://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visiting/planning-your-visit/parking/parking-locations
When we were last there, there was no mobile signal so we had to remember to pay later (in the pub!).It’s a good idea to download the RingGo app in advance as signing up will take a few minutes of valuable drinking time.
