River Manifold Walks

The guide is designed to appeal to both experienced walkers and individuals or families wanting a pleasant and interesting stroll.  All the walks are described in considerable detail to assist those who may not be confident in map reading, but who may wish to explore and enjoy the lesser walked areas of the beautiful Staffordshire Moorlands.

For the energetic, there is a 23 miles linear walk from the high and remote moorlands of Flash to the popular and picturesque location of Ilam and Dovedale.  Devotees of circular walks will find 12 carefully described routes, all accompanied by maps, photographs and interesting facts.  One circular walk commences from the moors at Flash, 3 start from the ancient village of Longnor, 2 from Hulme End on the Hartington road, 2 from the Manifold Valley and 4 from the magnificent National Trust estate at Ilam and Dovedale.  Both of these long distance walks have now been included on the White Peak OL 24 Map.
