Circular walks are always a favourite when exploring somewhere new and there is a 1 mile circular walk in Ilam Park across the parkland, beside the River Manifold and past Ilam Hall. If visiting Ilam Park for the first time head to the Visitor Centre and pick up our free leaflet that contains the route map and get exploring! The route is dog friendly and includes slopes, gates, uneven paths and can be muddy in places. Dogs on leads are always welcome to Ilam Park and you'll find water bowls and parking hooks by the stableyard and the Manifold Tea-room.
The beautiful Ilam Hall is now used as a YHA youth hostel, offering accommodation all year round. The surrounding gardens and parkland are cared for all year round by our dedicated team of White Peak rangers and volunteers, with much of the open parkland grazed year round by sheep.
