This detailed and informative walking guide contains 20 circular
routes, from 4-1/2 miles to 20 miles in length, with each route
consisting of four components. The routes are all within Derbyshire
and start from Duffield, Belper, Allestree, Carsington Water,
Chatsworth, Castleton, Ogston and Tissington. Many of the routes
are based on original charity walks. Dr James Mason of Duffield
organised an annual sponsored walk to support the homeless people
of Derby, known as the Duffield Deanery walk, which visited the
churches in the Deanery. He originally completed it over a weekend
but the book has split it into four routes. This explains why
churches feature significantly as stopping points or points of
reference. Some of the shorter routes were originally developed as
sponsored walks to support the Friends of Babington Hospital of
Belper. The routes have been planned to minimise road walking,
mainly crossing fields and tracks. They will take you past some
interesting sights including churches, farms, World Heritage sites,
pubs and mills. Varied and challenging - if you choose - this guide
is a must for walking enthusiasts, whether local or visitors to
Derbyshire.
