Welcome to Country Walks

Get your walking boots ready and take a look at our dog friendly walks.

Discover the beauty of the UK's countryside on foot, from the quiet country lanes and riversides to the spectacular hills, valleys and dales.

Our walks are mainly in the counties of Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire, but we also have some walks from trips further afield.


Discover these landscapes on foot with our walking routes, from circular walks to easy there-and-back-again strolls. Your next adventure in the countryside begins right here.

We also now have a small number of long distance walks to try.

Dog Friendly

Most of our walks are dog friendly, some will have places your friend can run free, others will be on lead walks. Some may have stiles that require you to carry your dog over.

Most of our walks are tested by either our walks Team Leader (pictured) or one of his canine friends.

If you have a large dog, you will need to decide if you are willing to lift them over obstacles before setting out.
