Next weekend - Dovedale - Annual Schnauzer Walk 19th and 20th May 2018
Just a quick post to remind / mention that this coming weekend is the Annual Schnauzer Walk at Dovedale, Derbyshire.
I hope it’s ok to share on here but if not Dean please delete my post.
There are two walks :
Saturday 19th May meet in the usual area near the refreshment hut near the main entrance and loo’s at 12.30 and we will all aim to start walking away from there at 1pm and along the river to lovely hamlet of Milldale (loo’s at Milldale and hopefully Pollys cottage will be serving refreshments from the stable door but be warned we usually create a very long queue and it’s probably the busiest day for them each year) and head back to the car park/start
Sunday 20th May meet at the same place but a bit earlier at 11.30 and aim to start walking away from there at 12 noon (same walk)
It’s entirely up to everyone how far you walk, it’s about 3&1/2miles to Milldale and obviously the same back but you can turn around and head back at any point (and many do) it’s entirely up to you.
The scenery is stunning and it goes without saying you are responsible for yourself and your dog(s) and must pick up after your dog(s) and also not leave any litter.
The Postcode for the carpark at Dovedale is DE6 2AX it is a big carpark but it can be very busy so please allow yourself plenty of time, you pay the carpark attendant at the gate on the way in (it’s NOT a National Trust Carpark)
We are driving up in our camper on Friday so that we can do both walks and are off all of the following week so will probably stay around the area for the week.
For those on Facebook there is a page with more info “2018 Annual Schnauzer Walk” see you there, Wookie and her staff Helen and Gary
