Chesterfield

'Our programme contains regular walks throughout the year from four miles upwards and from easy to strenuous. There are walks accessible by public transport and by car. We feature themed walks, evening walks, and rambles for the visually impaired – and are the main contributor to the local Walking Festival.'

Usually held Mid May.

'Put simply, we are a friendly group of people who enjoy walking around the Peak District and Chesterfield area. We are a relaxed and informal group who want to combine walking with other activities including social events and weekends away. Our goal is to offer a wide range of walks and events that best suits all of our members.'

'Pools Brook, at 165 acres is Chesterfield's largest park. It offers something for everybody with miles of trails, extensive woodland plantations, meadows, lakes, childrens' play areas and wildlife habitats.'

'Explore the beautiful countryside of the Chesterfield Area on foot ...'

'Over 60 works of art have sprung up all round the Borough in the past few years. From Walton to Whittington and from Staveley to Spital over three dozen artists have used their vision to enhance the environment. And there's more to come ...'

'The Chesterfield Canal is ideal for walking along its entire length. The towpath is called The Cuckoo Way and is clearly signposted for all 46 miles from Chesterfield to West Stockwith.'

'Enjoy views of Chesterfield’s famous Crooked Spire from afar – and take in some of the pretty villages along the southern edge of this historic market town – in our free audio trail. The trail takes in an 11-mile linear walk from Chesterfield Town Hall to Clay Cross, via Walton Dam, Somersall, Wingerworth and the hamlets of Woodhead and Newmarket.' ALERT The 'Hidden Gems' Website formerly referenced here seems no longer. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find an alternative description of the Trail online. So I have merely referenced some information about the Walk from the Ramblers - who may be able to help with details.

'Allow 4-6 hours, plus time to visit Revolution House.'
