Monday 26th January. Ticknall to Foremark, led by Christine

5 of us met at Ticknall Village hall on a rather cloudy but dry day. We set of along the National Forest way and at the Hangman’s stone we turned left and headed towards Foremark Reservoir. Water levels are surprisingly still quite low despite the recent wet weather. We continued along the National Forest way towards Carvers Rocks before following a bridle path towards Repton and Milton. We then followed a muddy path before rejoining the National Forest Way back to Ticknall.

Just under 10 miles. On our return we all enjoyed a hot drink and homemade cake.
