Grassmoor - Five Pits Trail Circular – (Derbyshire) – 25/05/13 – 6 Miles (approx)

Some walkers like to do different walks every time they go out and can't stand the idea of repeating themselves. I on the other hand like to build a small collection of walks to draw on, whenever I feel like just getting out of the door, minus all the maps and planning. Hence my old (and now lost forever): Grand Union Canal/Osterley Park circular, Putney to Osterley linear, and Richmond Park inner and outer loop circular. Well having done this walk myself four days prior, the next thing to do was to bring the other half along for her evaluation. Molly the black labrador was also on hand to give this walk the once over. The verdict being that it was quite acceptable as a walk, which on this occasion was enhanced by the sunny weather, and the double foodie stops to consume Tesco sarnies and my latest (Victoria) sponge cake creation. So overall a keeper in my book, with lots of scope to develop the basic spine of the walk with additional loops and diversions
