The author has divided the routes into seasons to show each at its
very best. In spring, the fields around Monyash are golden with cowslips
and the woods near Hayfield are a sea of bluebells.
On a fine day in
summer there are wonderful views over the hilltops and the moorland
around Edale is purple with heather. Autumn brings colour to the
Tissington Trail and the reservoirs near Holme are a splendid place to
see migrant birds. To appreciate the special atmosphere of the Derwent
Valley you should visit in winter.
All the walks include details of:
- How to get to the start
- Where to park
- Numbered route map and directions
- Distance and terrain
- Recommended local pubs and cafés
- Points of interest along the way
Whenever you manage to pay a visit to the nation’s oldest national
park, you’ll be rewarded with stunning scenery and some excellent pubs
in its quaint villages.
