Ilam Park: Tales at Twilight Guided Walk
As the seasons change and the nights draw in, join us to walk the darkening paths of Ilam Park and hear our strange and mysterious tales.
- Booking essential
Journey with us into evening, as we walk along the path from Ilam Hall, past the ancient church, along the river and back up the Battlestone path. We'll introduce you to ghostly spectres, share sinister stories from the long forgotten past and haunting creatures that lurk across the Peak District...
This event, like all our events is open to members of the National Trust and non-members. Money raised goes back into looking after the White Peak.
