Pride of Peak Walk

The Pride of the Peak Walk was developed to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Peak National Park . It is a delightful circular walk that takes in some of the finest scenery of the Peak District - gentle green hills, drystone walls, crystal-clear streams, wooded dales, attractive stone-built villages and gritstone edges bordering heather-covered grouse moors.

Highlights of the trail include the glorious views from Longstone Moor, Monsal Head, Froggatt Edge and Curbar Edge; the wildflowers in Tansley Dale, Tideswell Dale and Water-cum-Jolly Dale; the charming little market town of Bakewell, with its ancient five-arched bridge, wonderful church, welcoming inns and fragrant pudding shops; Chatsworth, the 'noblest house in England', and its magnificent gardens; the isolated and ghostly remains of the Magpie Mine, the finest reminder of the once great lead industry of the Peak; the huge church of St John the Baptist, the 'Cathedral of the Peak'; and the villages of Hassop, Wardlow, Calver, Froggatt, Baslow, Litton and Edensor, a pretty village built to house the inhabitants of the villages of Chatsworth and Langley, whose homes were demolished to improve the views from the 'grand house'.
