Monsal Trail - Grindleford to Buxton (★★★★★)
Today the plan is to walk the Monsal Trail - along a route that used to be one of Britain's most impressive railway routes. Access to this particular trail via public transport requires a bit of logistical planning - and there is a choice in terms of how you access the trail (with the easiest being by bus) - but here I have decided that I will start on the existing railway network, and head past Chatsworth House (on the way to joining up with the Monsal Trail).
