LOSE HILL TO MAM TOR HIKE

A splendid circular hike from the campsite, up Lose Hill then a glorious ridge walk along to Mam Tor and down along the grassy trails passing Blue John Cavern, Treak Cliff Cavern, Speedwell Cavern and Peak Cavern. We didn't visit any, I've been down them in my youth. I love the Blue John jewellery they make from the mined rock, very pretty. 
We arrived in Castleton and the idea was to get the bus back the 2 miles to Hope, but as we didn't find the bus stop we legged it, a peaceful walk back along the fields, we finished up walking about 9 miles. A wonderful walk!
