This guidebook provides 35 day walks and 7 longer walks and trails
exploring the eastern section of Derbyshire's limestone area. The
walks are spread across the area, starting in pleasant towns and
villages including Bakewell, Tissington, Eyam and Middleton.
Largely travelling along well-marked paths over gentle rolling
landscapes, these walks are suitable for walkers of all abilities.
The day walks range between 4 and 12 miles in length, and are
illustrated with extracts of 1:50,000 OS mapping, while the longer
walks and trails are covered by 1:100,000 scale mapping. Walkers
can use the longer trails to link day walks into longer routes or
explore the area on the three-day White Peak Circular, starting in
Birchover. While geologically fascinating with its layers of
limestone and gritstone, the White Peak is also a landscape rich in
history and art. These walks visit sites including medieval
churches, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Cromford Mill, and
Eyam, a village devastated by plague in the 1660s. Out on the hills
are stone circles and ancient sites such as the Neolithic burial
site of Arbor Low.
