There are many wonderful walks in this part of the Goyt Valley. And none of them are particularly difficult. I’ve included a number of my favourites on this website. And I’ve got plans to include more – as soon as I get the opportunity.
The easiest walk is probably walk 1 – which is about two miles long and includes a footpath designed for wheelchair users. This runs down to the River Goyt (which is very much a stream at this point). The photo above shows the lowest part of this walk.
The longest is walk 12, which is about 15 miles long and follows the route of the old Cromford & High Peak railway line from Burbage, on the outskirts of Buxton, to Whaley Bridge. This is the only non-circular walk in the series, returning to Buxton by a regular train service.
