Overview

Starting at the Peak District Car Park at Tideswell,  this 8-mile circular walk will take you around four of the Derbyshire Dales, starting in Tideswell Dale, then we walk alongside the River Wye along Miller’s Dale and Water-cum-Jolly Dale, then finally to Cressbrook Dale before returning via Litton to Tideswell Dale. 

It’s mostly a low-level walk, with good paths although it can be muddy after wet weather, in spring there's plenty of wildlife and nature to spot along the way.
