With the Corvedale Cake Walk fast approaching, here's some topical reading. Apparently Shropshire, "for one of the most sparsely populated counties in the country, has more than its fair share of baking specialities" - as I'm sure @MarchesLDWA will be keen to demonstrate!

This how 90% of my walks start, by catching a bus. It would be nicer in full daylight - roll on lighter mornings.

Added bonus as we had time, a meander through @VisitSheffield to see the Winter Gardens on the recommendation of @SevenHillsWI. We’ve had a lovely visit to the city and plan to return. Lots of Transport links into the Peak District @WomensInstitute @WILifemagazine @MFWI @N1_WI

Windshaped rocks steep descents and some rocky foot work made for an interesting second half of the walk. The sun shone words flowed and we arrived back in Edale by 4. @WomensInstitute @WILifemagazine @PeakDistrictNT @MFWI @CheshireWIs

More photos of our Activity Week walk up Jacob’s Ladder to Kinder Scout ( the dog was very impatient with our speed). Stunning views and a sheltered spot for lunch. @peakdistrict @PeakDistrictNT @WomensInstitute @WILifemagazine @MFWI @CheshireWIs
