Pub To Pub Walks In Derbyshire And The Peak District
|
|
|
One thing many people love about the Peak District is the large number of walker-friendly pubs, serving good food and excellent beers. For many, the thing that keeps them going through their walk is the thought of a refreshing pint at the end of it as a reward for completion.
Derbyshire Heritage Walks can help with that, as we have designed a number of different walks, each of which starts and finishes at a popular walker-friendly pub. Book one of these walks and you can enjoy the magnificent Peak District scenery without having to worry about navigation, secure in the knowledge that we will get you back to the pub in plenty of time for that celebratory pint.
Most walks are available as scheduled bookings, and may also be booked privately on a date of your own choosing via a Personal Walking Guide.
