Illustrative image

Derbyshire's Peak District splits into dark gritstone edges and pale limestone dales. Walkers head for Stanage Edge from Hathersage, Kinder Scout from Edale and the Great Ridge from Castleton, while Dovedale, Lathkill Dale and Monsal Dale follow quieter rivers. Old railway lines make easy riding, with the Monsal, High Peak, Tissington and Manifold Trails all on gentle gradients.

On the way you'll hear about Eyam, the plague village, and Robin Hood's Cave under Stanage. There's Chatsworth House and the estate village of Edensor, the Derwent and Howden dams above Ladybower, and the stepping stones beneath Thorpe Cloud.
