    (APOLOGIES FOR THE CHANGE again but stormy weather Tuesday followed by rain Wednesday cannot allow the walk to take place as a safe Naturist event. I regret the inconvenience it will cause for some)

    This is our third and final Peak District Walk for the 2019 season. All participants will be provided with an O.S. Copy of the route, should they wish to renew the experience in future by themselves or with friends. Organisers will also have  BN advice paper copies concerning Public Nudity. 
    Car-park location:  There are several around Errwood Reservoir. Please refer to the map below. Preferred parking is marked No.1 but if full, there is lots more parking 5 minutes walk across dam at No.2.

    Distance: 10.5 km ~ 6.5 miles 
    Climb: apprx. 257m ~ 840ft
    Comments: First sector up to crossing A5004 (Buxton-Whaley Bridge) is steep footpath. Nudity is possible. After A5004 the path is in full view of public road then reaches White Hall children's outdoor adventure centre so cover-up is advisable. Beyond White Hall nudity is possible all the way to trig.platform and beyond. There are no official footpaths over Combs Moss but there are ramblers paths around the edge of the moor and along drystone walls across the moor so a circular return route is possible. On a sunny day midweek several hours nude walking are possible.

    An extension of the walk continues to Castle Naze, an Iron Age hill fort at the north end of Combs Moss.
    This is a promontory fort of probable Iron Age date. It uses the natural cliffs of the hill that it stands to protect its northern and western sides. It is triangular in form, and in order to protect its south eastern face, a very impressive double rampart of possibly later Iron Age construction has been thrown up.

    Please have a backpack with you with a warm top, cap, sun cream, waterproof if the weather turned. Water, picnic food, (trekking poles), walking shoes/boots as it could be possibly muddy in places. Take along anything light to carry but  you may need for your own comfort. A basic First Aid kit is also always advisable to carry with you.

    Thu 29 Aug 2019 18:45      19:45

    The swim is every Thursday, 7:45-8:45pm, and costs £5.
    The cost includes the use of a shared sauna and steam room; but bring shorts to use them, as those facilities are shared with other users of the leisure centre. You’ll also need a (refundable) £1 coin or trolley token for the lockers.
    The address is Arcadia Library & Leisure Centre, Yew Tree Avenue, Manchester, M19 3PH. There's free parking at the back, with cycle racks and local bus stops at the front, and Levenshulme train station a three minute walk away with frequent, direct services to Manchester Piccadilly. The group meets inside the leisure centre, just beyond reception, against the blue wall near the computers. A group member will welcome you there and take payment.
    The pool we use has its own changing cubicles, lockers, showers and toilets, and includes facilities for wheelchair users. Full length blinds protect our privacy from the neighbouring pool for the duration of our swim. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed; in the pool you can swim or chat as much or as little as you like. There's an optional visit to the nearby pub The Bluebell for a pint afterwards.
    Numbers vary, but average 15-20 guys each week; the maximum allowed is 30. The swim is advertised on various sites and groups online, so don’t worry if there are low numbers attending from this listing. This swim was established in 2006, and is one of the UK’s few remaining male only naturist swim events. Men from not just Manchester, but all over the UK and even around the world have swam with us; and all men are welcome to attend. For any queries, email swiminfo@manchestermalenakedswim.co.uk or search @mcrmalenkdswim on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.
    Unacceptable behaviour will not be tolerated.
