This route climbs up to Bamford Edge from the north of Bamford Moor. Then it is a walk around the high ground of Bamford Moor back to Javis Clough with great views over to Stanage. Bamford Moor was for many years a no go area for walkers although it is now within Access Land. The moor itself between Bamford and Stanage Edges, is pathless and the valley between the two edges is very boggy, so this walk avoids this area. Throughout there are great views, especially along the top of Bamford Edge with the views north to Ladybower reservoir and over to Win Hill over in the west.
