Friday 18th September. Meet at Ticknall car park for a walk into Calke
Five walkers, on a good fay for walking,set off for Calke activity area where there sometimes is a coffee stall. Not today, so we set off for the main cafe. The walk from Ticknall is good and avoids the tunnel which you use when you go to the lime kilns.
There was some new activities being implemented particularly a track. We then crossed the entrance road and following the green paths we soon arrived at the cafe for a break.
We returned on much the same trail it seemed to be shorter bu does not look like it on the map.
