397 'B' Walk from Bakewell 2019

Walk Leader:  Peter Ackers
Total Distance: 9 Miles
Total Ascent/Descent:

Bakewell to Chatsworth

We leave the car park and head towards Carlton Pastures taking the steep path through the woods by the old station.

An easy walk along the open expanse of the pastures past the Iron Age fort and the Russian Cottage.

Passing through a walled lane we emerge on to Chatsworth Park to enjoy our first full view of the House.

We walk on to Edensor a lovely village where no two houses are the same, except in colour.

Leaving Edensor we make our way to Chatsworth and lunch by the river.

After lunch we follow the River Derwent and making our way to Carlton Lees.

The afternoon is uphill most of the way, past Carlton Houses and back to the pastures.

From here we head back via a steep decent through Manners Wood and back to the car park.
