So after leaving Shrigley Hall, we drove through Buxton and over to our campsite at Shallow Grange. We set up the tipi and settled in just before a heavy downpour started! It has been really dry and hot, so the rain was welcome, and we were glad to be settled inside the tipi snacking and relaxing when the drops started to fall. For dinner we drove to a nearby pub in Chelmorton and had a great meal where we also learned about some walks in the area.
This morning we set off on what was advertised as a 9 mile circuit walk which followed the vales of the Peak District near Chelmorton from our campsite. We went through some beautiful vales and along the Wye river, then ended at what was supposed to be our midway point at the Anchor's End pub. We haven't been on enough hikes lately! In fact, we ended up calling a taxi to come pick us up and take us back to the campsite, but it was fine in the end.
(still need to upload some other photos of our walk here)
After a bit of recuperating, we will go into Buxton to explore, find a place for dinner, and then go see the live performance of the trapped Chilean miner story. Should be interesting..
