Default Suggestions for a good Sunday drive out.

After giving the Rex a good wash today I fancy a bit of a drive out tomorrow. Can anyone recommend some twistys in the Derbyshire or surrounding areas? I know snake pass but it can be a bit hit and miss for lorries and hidden mobile cameras.

Bought an extension for my GoPro external mic also so want to give that a bit of a test

Out of Macclesfield take the A537.
At the top of the straight hill, fork right into Buxton Old Road.
Stop at Tegg's nose for picnic/take in the view.



Turn right out of Tegg's nose car park and eventually join the A537 again.

Turn left at Ankers Knowl Lane/Hooleyhey Lane towards Lamaload Reservoir, carry on at the triangle along Hooleyhey Lane.
Turn right at t-junction towards Errwood reservoir. Left into Sandy Lane and then drive across the top of the dam and cary along Sandy lane (a good long steep uphill section).
On to the main road and into Buxton.

That'll do you!

Check the route on Google Earth first!
