Snake Pass

[PeteXXX]

Looking at Google Maps, it says the A57 is closed...

Is it? I might be driving as far as the Pennine Way from Ladybower this Friday (unless it's shut!)

TIA

Go to one network to pull up the relevant closure details.

That has it as 20mph speed limits due to landslips but still open.
Fingers crossed, unless any locals know better,.?

I heard they are now at Hathersage. Snakes on a train…

East to West from Ladybower..

East to West from Ladybower..

I'm not sure exactly where the pennine way is but is there no option to come from the Glossop side instead?

The Pennine Way crosses the Snake pass at it's summit. Nope, I'll likely be heading in from the M1 & Chesterfield.

Has it got to be the snake, or could you go up to jct35 and go over Woodhead and get on the way there?

Got to be Snake. Woodhead would be miles further and take longer. As the Snake Pass is open, albeit with speed limitations, it'll be easier.
