Overview

An undulating walk with ascents to both sides of the Ecclesbourne Valley - from the garden centre we negotiate the new bridge across the river on our way to Hazelwood then across the valley to Windly, up to Gunhills and descend to the start point - there are many stiles in poor condition that need to be negotiated with care.
