Winter walks in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire

Take a bracing winter walk at one of our places this month. Explore parkland, woodland, or the wild Peak District, and take in some breathtaking scenery. We recommend wrapping up warm and wearing sturdy boots or wellies. Afterwards, you can treat yourself to a hot drink and bite to eat at one of our restaurants or tea-rooms. There's a walk here for you - whether you are looking for adventure, or a gentle stroll with family.

Stunning winter walks in the Peak District at Longshaw

Breath in the fresh air of the Peak District with one of our Longshaw walks. Wrap up warm and follow the course of Burbage Brook through the ancient Padley Wood. Or explore Longshaw's woodland, including sculpted gritstone outcrops, medieval fields and ancient oaks. Take in the dark beauty of the Peak District National Park's ironic landscape with a wander around the Eastern Edges of Big Moor, where we support a diverse range of wildlife.
