Walks and trails
Derbyshire is excellent walking territory with a huge variety of opportunities to explore our stunning countryside, historic towns and villages, canals, rivers and much more.
We manage and maintain a wide range of specially designed walks and trails and they offer many opportunities for walking.
You can use our trails for walking, cycling and horse riding. Many of our trails follow disused railway lines, so provide easy walking and riding, often suitable for disabled people.
