A Boot Up the Eastern Peak: 10 Leisure Walks of Discovery

This handy, hardback pocket guide to the mainly gritstone eastern fringes of the Peak District National Park makes a grand companion for anyone interested in exploring the area on foot. The ten routes described range in length from a modest 3.25 miles (6 kms) to 8.5 miles (13.5 kms). Plenty of captioned colour photographs by the author give a flavour of each route and panels give additional interesting detail about geographical features and historical associations. The routes cover a broad canvas and are ideal for families and groups of friends, from the wild moorlands around Langsett, Back Tor and Derwent Edge to the wooded confines of Ewden Dale; the reservoirs in delightful Bradfield Dale; crossing the River Derwent and exploring parts of the Eastern Edges. The ten walks are: Langsett and the Porter Valley; The Best of Ewden Dale; On Foot in Bradfield Dale; Wyming Brook and Redmires; Along the Duke of Norfolk
