This is a figure of eight circular walk around the park and gardens of kedleston Hall. The first part is around 4 miles with the second around 3 miles. It is a picturesque Autumn walk which offers views of the gardens and the back of the Hall, while giving a good perspective of the size of Kedleston Park.
It's a fairly level walk on good woodland paths and well behaved dogs on a lead are welcome. The "cross over" between the two walks is at the Hall.
Parking and Entry to the park is free for National Trust members. HOWEVER - the Trust no longer charge for parking but rather they charge for entry to the Park on a per person basis and the current cost is £8.00 per head.
