Rudyard Lake - clockwise

 Wednesday 11th September 2024

We went out after coffee and started walking at 1pm . Much quieter than last time we were here, and few dogs this time.

Rudyard Lake circular in the opposite direction from 20th October 2023. So we walked the western, hillier, more scenic side first.


This worked well today as the weather was bright and sunny,

before the rain clouds came over,

as we were walking beneath the trees on the eastern side,

next to the miniature railway track. 4.5 miles.

We had a couple of pauses, one for a Twix at the northern end on the bridge near the bird feeders,


and one on a bench near the dam.

We bought a hot drink at the cafe before returning to Ridgehead farm.



We saw a buzzard, swallows dipping over a grassy field, a couple of blue tits on a feeder, and later some sand martins near the cafe.
