Castleton Summer Trail Clean

Summer Trail Clean

Hope Valley Climate Action, a community led charity has recently become a TFT Community Hub in the Peak District!

Following on from our Spring clean-up in April we’re heading out for a roam in Castleton with our litter pickers at hand. Grab your family, friends and come on down for a morning stroll (but with a purpose!).

Start/Finish: Castleton Visitor Centre, Buxton Rd, Castleton, Hope Valley S33 8WN

This is timed with arriving by local buses (see below for details)

Where we’ll go: A relaxed 2.2 miles walking over the fields towards the old broken road, enjoying scenic views of Mam Tor then coming back along Old Mam Tor road, finishing back at the visitor centre where toilets and refreshments are available. The route should take around 1 hour 45 minutes including a couple of stops along the way. As well as enjoying the outdoors we’ll be removing as much litter as possible along the trail, then later we’ll count it all up and submit our findings to the Trash Free Trails Report!

Everyone will be provided with a litter picker and a bag but please bring a pair of gloves – see below on what else to bring.

What to bring:

• Gloves you don’t mind getting dirty (to pick up litter)

• Suitable footwear with grip

• A bottle of water to stay hydrated

• Layers and something waterproof
