There can be no better way to explore the Peak District than with a scenic circular walk followed by tea and cake. This book contains 20 walking routes in the area allowing you to do just that.

These Peak District walks range from 3½ to 6½ miles, taking in everything from the dark, forbidding moorland around Hayfield to the wooded beauty of the scenery around Ilam; from the reservoirs of Langsett and Bradfield to the Macclesfield Canal near Lyme Park. And of course, every walk starts and finishes somewhere that's just perfect for afternoon tea.

These walks are intended to be enjoyed at a gentle pace, with plenty of time to stop and take in the surroundings.
