Overview

Taking the Limestone way Through Thorpe village towards Blore. Then descending through Oakover Park to Mappleton before ascending to the Tissington Trail and back to Peveril. An easy walk, much on hard surfaces so very suitable for unpredictable winter weather.

An opportunity to get some fresh air and hopefully some views.
