	We set off from the HF Peveril of the Peak house, bypassing Thorpe Cloud ahead
	And descend Lindale
	To the stepping stones which people are crossing in trainers (compare this with pictures of the medium walk on the last day)
	This tree has interesting fungus
	Turkey tails, Sue tells us
	Hammering coins into wood seems popular here
	Dovedale is full of reef limestone which wears well, leaving many interesting shapes.
	This is Reynard's Cave
	The River Dove trickles gently along (see pictures of the medium walk on the last day)
	Lionshead Rock
	Ilam Rock
	We stop for coffee in Milldale
	Then zigzag up
	A typical view of small fields and dry stone walls
	The River Dove forms a hairpin beneath us and was modified to improve the fishing. This is home to Izaak Walton and The Complete Angler.
	We descend into Tissington. This is Hall Well, one of the 6 wells that are dressed by pressing flowers and other organic material into clay during Ascension Week. About 50,000 people visit this village for the well-dressing. It was busy enough on the sunny Sunday we were there!
	A group photo
	We return to the hotel and another view of Thorpe Cloud.
