The walk will start at the Creswell Crags visitor centre car park, walking through the woodland beside the river to the lake and gorge.  

At the stream we go over the stone stile and up a small steep hill, then along the grassy field to the small hamlet of Holbeck. 

Some road walking until we reach the A60 then onto a section of the Welbeck Trail back to the Creswell Crags car park.
