There just isn't a bad time to walk in the Peak District, each
season offers something new. The twenty circular walks in this book
vary in length from 2 to 8 miles and are enjoyable all year round.
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 cafes * 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. Peter Naldrett lives in Sheffield, on
the edge of the Peak District, and is a geography teacher and
journalist. He writes regularly for magazines and is the author or
a number of successful walking books including Derbyshire & the
Peak District - A Dog Walker's Guide and The Lake District - A Dog
Walker's Guide.
