B Walk from Bakewell 2014

Walk Leader: John Adamson
Total Distance: 9Miles
Total Ascent/descent: 1300ft app
 

The circular clockwise walk leaves Bakewell Showground Car Park to the east climbing up through the golf course and Manners Wood, across Calton Pastures and down through Chatsworth Park to Edensor village.  This latter section provides magnificent views of Chatsworth House and a herd of Roe Deer.  After looking across at Chatsworth House the route continues south along the beautiful River Derwent through Calton Lees to Rowsley.  Hopefully the fields of bluebells will still be on show.   The return walk climbs out of Rowsley and heads north east back to Bakewell along the River Wye valley.  Excellent views of the Derbyshire hillside can be seen from the walk.
