The proximity to Sheffield is a great draw for this route. Rather than use the car it is possible to get the 51 bus to the terminus; but it does make the route longer. Hallam Moor does not have any paths marked on the maps but there is the odd sheep track. The moor is very boggy so this route only makes sense in dry condition (or frozen!). Once over Hallam Moor there is a surprise view down the hope Valley and along Stanage Edge.
