We are the Derby and South Derbyshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

Along the river with lovely views, a fairly steep ascent to the Hunting Tower with sweeping views. Return along the top before descending on a track to Carlton Lees cp. Possible tea-shop and garden centre visit afterwards. Possible walk extension to Beeley for those wanting a slightly longer walk.
You should bring enough food and drinks with you to last the whole walk. We usually stop for a coffee break an hour or so into the walk, and stop for packed lunch around 1230-1300 although weather and a suitable location can affect timings.
Risks: this is the Peak District, and inclement weather, steep and/or rocky sections, muddy/slippery sections and farm livestock are always possible. You should remain alert and take individual responsibility.
Calton Lees cp, Chatsworth estate near small bridge over river; £5 minimum charge
