1. START Hartington car park (GR SK128603). Turn R (SW), turning R (N, signed Longnor) at T-junction at 1m/1.6km, turning R (N) at staggered X-roads at 2m/3.2km to T-junction at 5.5m/8.8km. Fork L (WNW, signed Longnor), turning R (N) up small lane at 0.12m/0.2km in Longnor, going SO at junctions to gated, waymarked bridleway track at 0.25m/0.4km. Go SO (NNW), zigzagging L/R (NE) off 'main' track and round barn at 0.12m/0.2km, crossing Beggars footbridge, keeping R (N) at track T-junction at 0.75m/1.2km to C-road at 0.9m/1.4km. Fork L (N), taking hairpin turn R (E) up unclassified track at 0.5m/0.8km, turning R (SE) onto C-road soon after, forking L (ESE) at T-junction at 1m/1.6km to T-junction with track (Pennine bridleway) at 1.5m/2.5km. Turn L (NNE), turning R through gate onto High Peak Trail rail path at 0.6m/1km to alternative start at Parsley Hay (car-park, kiosk and basic bike spares here) at 4m/6.4km. 2. Go SO (SSE), forking L (SSE) at signed T-junction with Tissington Trail at 0.4m/0.6km, turning L (NNE) at track X-roads at 1.7m/2.7km to X-roads with C-road at 3m/4.8km. Turn R (SSW), turning L (E) onto unclassified track at 0.4m/0.6km to gated T-junction by walled dewpond at 0.9m/1.4km. Fork L (NE) onto unclassified road, turning R (E) at T-junction at 0.75m/1.2km, turning R (S) in Middleton soon after to T-junction with bridleway singletrack on LH bend at 2m/3.2km. Go SO (SSW), joining track at 0.3m/0.5km, keeping L (SW) on singletrack by wall at 0.8m/1.3km to gate above Long Dale at 1.1m/1.8km. 3. Go through gate then fork L (SSE) on vague singletrack at first then grass track descent, zigzagging L/R (effectively SO) through gate at 0.25m/0.4km to go through gate at 1.1m/1.8km in Gratton Dale. Turn R (S) up steep climb, swinging L (E) then (S) to A5012 (busy road!) at 0.5m/0.8km. Turn R (W), turning L (SSW, signed Parwich) at T-junction at 0.4m/0.6km, turning L (SSW, signed Parwich) at T-junction at 1.25m/2km, turning L (E) at X-roads at 1.5m/2.5km, turning R (S) onto unclassified track at T-junction at 1.9m/3km to go through gate at 2m/3.2km. Go SO (S), forking L (S) at T-junction immediately after Royston Grange farm to gate just beyond T-junction at 1.25m/2km. Go SO (SSE) down rough tarmac track, turning L (E) at C-road T-junction at 1m/1.6km at Ballidon, going SO up the hill, keeping R (ESE) at T-junction on LH bend at 1.3m/2.1km to go through gate. 4. Go SO (ESE) up grass track, going SO (ENE) gated X-roads with C-road to T-junction with track at 1.1m/1.8km. Fork L (ENE) through bridle-gate, swinging L (NNW) on singletrack across field at 0.1m/0.15km to bridle-gate at 0.4m/0.6km. Go through gate then turn R (N), zigzagging R/L (effectively SO, N) onto waymarked track at 0.25m/0.4km to C-road at 0.3m/0.5km. Turn R (ENE), turning L (NNW, signed Aldwark) at X-roads in Longcliffe at 0.6m/1km, keeping L at next T-junction, turning L (SW) at T-junction with unclassified track at 1.2m/1.9km, swinging R in front of gate soon after to gate at 1.75m/2.8km (just beyond farm buildings - dogs!). Go through gate then swing L by old pond (no trail to follow here) across field to go through gate, SO (WNW) through another gate at 0.4m/0.6km then swinging R (N) to gated track at 0.5m/0.8km. 5. Go SO (NW), turning R (N) onto High Peak Trail rail path at X-roads at 0.4m/0.6km, turning L (WSW) onto familiar C-road at 1.5m/2.5km to T-junction at 1.6m/2.6km. Turn L (SSW, signed Parwich), turning R onto unclassified track at familiar X-roads soon after, forking R (WNW) to go through gate at T-junction at 0.75m/1.2km, going SO at T-junction at 1.4m/2.2km to A515. Turn R then almost immediately turn L (WNW) onto C-road, zigzagging R/L (effectively turning L, SSE) up onto Tissington Trail rail path at 0.4m/0.6km to cross bridge over C-road at 1.3m/2.1km. Take hairpin turn L down singletrack, turning L (W) onto C-road and turning R (N) at next T-junction to bridleway at Dalehead at 0.8m/1.3km. 6. Turn L (W, signed Hartington), forking R (NW, signed Hartington) at bridleway T-junction at 0.4m/0.6km, forking L (WNW) at T-junction at 0.75m/1.2km (steep climb!) to gate by barn at 1.2m/1.9km. Go SO (NW), going SO (NW) onto C-road at X-roads at 0.25m/0.4km, turning L (W) at staggered X-roads with unclassified tracks at 0.8m/1.3km to T-junction with B5054 at 1.25m/2km. Turn R back to start.
