    3.8 miles – Great Hill via Dean Black Brook.
    A walk up onto Great Hill via the very picturesque Dean Black Brook. Although the path alongside the brook is not shown on the Ordnance Survey map, and in places needs some care in negotiating, it’s well worth a look.
    4.4 miles – Circuit of Anglezarke Reservoir
    This is a nice easy walk that takes in country lanes with lovely old houses, and woodland trails with detours that you can explore if you have the time. It starts at the head of the reservoir and keeps it in sight for much of the walk.
    4.6 miles – Walking the Dean Ditch
    A walk taking in some of the moorland on Winter Hill and walking most of the length of the Dean Ditch, then returning via Dean Mills Reservoir and the Coal Pit Road..
    4.8 miles – Moorland Meanderings
    There are many paths to stroll along on and around Winter Hill. Some are shown on the Ordnance Survey maps, some are not. Today’s walk covered some of each as Brett, Sam and I spent a very enjoyable five miles and four hours of moorland meanderings.
    7.8 miles – Edale – Kinder Plateau – Edale
    This was a very pleasant but demanding circular walk, starting at the village of Grindsbrook Booth in the Edale Valley and taking in the Kinder Plateau with a return via Jacobs Ladder and the Pennine Way.
    9.9 miles – Six Dales walk, Derbyshire
    This circular walk begins at Monsal Head car park not far from the village of Ashford in the Water, and takes in Monsal Dale, Water-cum-Jolly Dale, Millers Dale, Tideswell Dale, Tansley Dale and Cressbrook Dale.
