Sett Valley Café and Chinley Churn As we have done for the past two years, we had a "Celebration Breakfast" at the Sett Valley Café- an enjoyable indulgence as ever! Breakfast portraits! We had left our choice of walking route pretty fluid but, in the end we decided to walk up towards New Allotments and see how we felt from that point. Looking back to Lantern Pike The cloud base was pretty low, but we could see the dusting of snow on Kinder Low. Kinder Low (with snow) in the distance We were going pretty well, so we decided to go the whole way down to the Throstle Bank farm and return via Cracken Edge and Peep o Day. Striding out above New Allotments Even though there was a very chilly breeze from time to time, we had a thoroughly enjoyable walk of 7.8 miles with 450m ascent.
