Tuesday 7th April
As the weather was more promising after the cold and windy Easter weekend, we got up and out of the house to Gradbach car park.
We started walking at 9.45, and did the walk to Three Shires Head clockwise, which involves the steep ascent early on, and a more gentle descent later.
For some reason three different people asked us for help with directions - a woman with kids at the car park , then a couple more women high up, and later two women from Leeds, who were on entirely the wrong track, looking for Lud’s church but heading for Three Shires Head.
The walk felt easier than we expected - conditions bright sunshine and fairly windy in parts, but warm.
We indulged in a coffee from the flask at Three Shires Head, then we returned to the cottage for lunch.
4.7 miles and almost 600 feet of climbing
