From the start of the fp to the SSE. A pleasant walk across typical upland Peak District terrain.clivevilla08/11/2023
Early Wednesday morning so nobody about! Walked up before a brilliant bouldering session on Xmas Buttress. As I drove home groups of Japanese tourists were making their way up the lane to the moor.John Eley13/09/2023

Bamford Moor, High Neb, Stanage Pole and White Path Moss and Higger Tor. Lovely clear day- till a landowner started a controlled burning of the heather! Busy with lots of families out for half term.Lazylizzie11/02/2023
Part of an 18 mile bike ride from Bamford, incl The Folly. Often been to Bamford Edge climbing but prob not been to high point before. A bright breezy boxing day.steveb200626/12/2022
From high point of road to the south up an obvious path. Nice view. I can remember when all this was off limits to the public. How things have improved.Alan Moore08/12/2022

Parked to SE and followed one of many tracks to top. Checked out a few boulders as potential HPs.PeterD29/07/2022
12.5 mile circular from Hathersage taking in Bamford Moor, High Neb and White Path Moss. We have bagged the last 2 twice before but surprisingly never visited Bamford Moor eventhough we have done all of the surrounding hills. 771m ascent. Sunny with a strong wind.DanTrig11/04/2022
Continued on from High Neb and then circled back to Dennis Knoll car park.Gerry the Ranger09/01/2022

Roadside parking at start of ROW to SE. Over stile, then obvious path to summit rock.PGCE16/04/2021
Both NE and SW summits visited in fading light as lights glowed in valley below. HP rocky outcrop near impressive Edge. The boggy yomp across pathless heather from High Neb is not ideal- would have been better just to have followed the excellent Edge path from the road to the south- roadside parking.Denise 12/11/2020
Direct line from High Neb over mixed ground and taking in the rock in heather of the 420m contour ring to NE of summit. Dark with nice views of lights in valley to the SW.RichardM12/11/2020

Perfect evening and great walk here from our holiday cottage.unowho6717/07/2020
From low point between 338 and 328, along road then footpath. Golden evening sun. Leafy White Peak a more pleasant environment to me than its bleaker, darker neighbour. Beeline back to car through baby bracken. Good end to the day.Wycombe Wanderer24/05/2020
With R and LChris Ellis03/05/2020
Met some chinese students who seemed a bit lost! No matter, helped them to get up to Bamber Crags, which were a good bit more impressive than the summit itself.Altheus13/07/2019
