A linear walk over the hills to Cromford including parts of the Derwent Valley Way and the Midshires Way. There are some long steady ascents and some stiles along the route which includes field paths, woodland and quiet lanes. Sections can be muddy and slippery after wet weather so be prepared for some awkward patches underfoot.
The plan is to return to Belper by train from Cromford station, leaving at 15.45 and arriving Belper 16.02. The cost is £5.10 without a railcard. There is also the option to return to Belper by bus. Please remember to bring rail cards and bus passes if you have them.
Free parking is available through the market place in Belper or on roadsides but please be aware that many roads are narrow so do park considerately.
Toilets and refreshments are available near the start in Belper and in Cromford but not elsewhere.
