This guidebook describes 35 circular walks cross the gritstone uplands and moors in the northern dales of the White Peak between Edale, Matlock and Buxton, in the middle of the Peak District National Park. Routes explore Bakewell and the Wye and its tributary dales. One of two Cicerone guides to the White Peak.
A guide to walking in northern dales of the White Peak area of the Peak District National Park between Edale, Matlock and Buxton. 35 walks are included in this guide, between 3 and 9 miles long, illustrated with OS map extracts. From Castleton and Winnats Pass gorge, down to Lathkill Dale and Matlock Spa, the northern section of the White Peak offers variety and beauty and is waiting to be explored.

The White Peak is the name given to the rocky southern area of the Peak District, for its pale underlying limestone. The result is a landscape of escarpments, heather moorlands, wooded valleys and the roll of hillsides and plateaux. Idyllic villages dot the walks with pubs standing by for refreshing walkers after a good walk.

Writer and broadcaster Mark Richards is the author of Cicerone's new 8-volume Lakeland Fellranger series and of the best-selling 'Great Mountain Days in the Lake District'. His first series of guides to the Peak District was published in the 1980s and has been in print ever since.
