Bit of a boggy path between White Edge and Curbar bit very passable

Great views looking down to Calver and Stoney Middleton, and a good reminder of the sacrifices people made

Along the route - some great wildlife - we saw 6 Meadow Fritillary butterflies and one frog!

This is a lovely and fairly easy walk. My tip, when you reach the bog, you'll know when, don't follow the Komoot crossing point. Move 25 yards to the right to cross and that way you'll keep your feet dry.

Well worth a visit, I researched a little background before I went and the full impact of the villagers sacrifice not home when I walked around Eyam and the graves. Can be slippery and quite muddy in the field where the Riley graves are located so boots are a must in wet weather.

The Calver Weir Restoration Project (CWRP) has emerged and grown from the efforts of a number of local residents and interested parties, who have been working to save the weir from collapse for years. In 2004, emergency repairs were carried out to prevent the imminent collapse of the weir, with the £40,000 cost of this work covered by donations from local businesses and residents. In the same year, CWRP was registered as a charity and subsequently secured a Development Grant of £50,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund to develop a comprehensive plan to restore Calver Weir and to conserve the adjacent wetlands.

Great area for a walk if you want to avoid the crowds

Following the edge is a lot less busy than other routes around this area, late September sees the deer enter rutting season.
