Overview

Following magnificent views of the Peak District from Froggatt Edge we descend, first to view the rock face at close quarters and thereafter the village.  The descent is rocky in places and walking poles may be beneficial. A walk along the Derwent Valley Heritage Way leads us to Grindleford and the final climb through Burbage Brook to the Longshaw Estate where the cafe serves excellent refreshments.

4 stiles en route.
