I parked on the road between Peak Forest and Old Dam. Easy to do even on a sunny Sunday in May. And followed the track up by Conies Farm that turns onto a path that gently rises onto Slitherstone Hill. There were sheep here. Lots of sheep. The summit is off the path a bit and requires clambering over a gate. I headed back  by the front of Rowter Farm. At the T-junction of paths just south of the farm I was surprised to find a coffee shop. It's a horse box conversion on the back of a land rover run by the local farm to supplement their income. Apparently it was their second day in business. The Victoria sponge was very good. It was a pleasant walk back from here down Oxlow Rake. 

Is this the easiest Ethel? Surely it must be. I parked in Green Lane and walked up to the east side by the junior school. Loads of paths lead up to the obvious top where there is a tower put up in the 19th century by the Dukes of Devonshire who owned the place back then. I came down a little further west by Poole's Cavern where there is a cafe and loos. 

I parked at Dove Stone Reservoir and walked up the valley by Yeoman Hey reservoir and Greenfield Reservoir and along Greenfield Brook to where the river branches where I went left up Birchen Clough. This is a really delightful easy scramble. Then I walked along the edge past the crazy frog rock (I don't think that is the official name) and the Trinnacle then over pathless mossy ground to the top of Ashway Moss, Then there is a path straight down to Ashway Gap and so back to start.
