Top walking trails for holiday makers in Derby

Whilst Derby has many sights and attractions, one of the main reasons that holiday makers flock here is to visit the nearby Peak District, so as to explore its many lanes, bridleways and footpaths. There are, in total, more than 2000 miles of trails around this area; certainly enough to keep a person busy for their two or three week holiday!
Hotels near Donnington are often booked for such adventures, as this location serves as the perfect jumping off point for a spot of countryside exploration; visitors can simply hop into their cars and find themselves in the heart of England’s most picturesque National Park in the space of an hour. Here, we discuss two of the most scenic trails around the Peak District.
Chatsworth Walk is an eight mile long trail which provides fantastic views for nature-lovers. During a brisk hike around this path, you’ll find yourself hovering on the breathtakingly high gritstone edges of Birchen and Dobb, and will have the chance to admire Chatsworth Park’s majestic Hunting Tower, and amble past the trickling waters of the River Derwent.
For those that want a more challenging route, Mam Tor Hill, more commonly referred to as the ‘Great Ridge’ is a trail along the grit and shale ridge, which lies on the border between the White and Dark Peaks. From the steps behind the Mam Nick car park, the pathway leads hikers through lush green forestry up to Back Tor, and east towards Hope Valley, where the stately Castleton sits in the foreground.
More information on these pathways, as well as the wealth of other countryside trails nearby can be obtained from the management of the hotels near Donnington, who are more than happy to help their guests make the most of the spectacular scenery in the local area.
