Free Self-guided Walks

The county of Derbyshire contains many great walks, far too many for us to run them all as guide-led walks. On this page, you can find lots of walks to download for FREE. Just download the directions, get the map(s) you may need (not all walks need a map), and follow the instructions for a great morning, afternoon, or even full day walking through the beautiful scenery and fascinating history of Derbyshire. Many of the shorter walks can be combined with one of our guide-led walks, which you can book online elsewhere on this website. Where this is possible, the individual free walk download pages give you suggestions as to which guide-led walk or walks you could book.

In addition to the free walks below, we also have a large range of self-guided walks which can be downloaded for the very reasonable price of just £2.50 each. You can find the index to those walks here. Each of those walks includes fully-detailed written directions and a GPX file which is suitable for use in many mobile phone apps and GPS receivers.
