This circular walk around the Derbyshire Peak District, based on youth hostels, is a meandering circuit which visits many of the limestone dales, including Dove Dale, Miller's Dale and Hay Dale and passes Chatsworth House and Park, Haddon Hall and the Castleton Show Caves. Accommodation for the whole walk can be booked through the Hathersage YHA booking service. This is a very comfortable, shorter walk that is ideal for those who want to experience a long distance walk.
