Buxton and the Peak District
Autumn 2003 Day 3

The third day was spent in the White Peak.
.
We assembled for our walk in Hartington, a delightful village.
.
We set off uphill out of the village.
.
Amazingly clear weather in the morning.
.
We then headed down a valley to towards our picnic place.
.
This was on the banks of the River Dove.
.
After lunch we followed the river for quite a way downstream.
.
The weather clouded up and we had a spot of rain. After a steep climb we came upon this magnificent new gate.
.
Some of the squeeze stiles proved a bit tight.
.
Delightful countryside in any weather.

Pleasingly, it cleared up again for the end of the walk back into Hartington.
