A picturesque valley nestled in the heart of the Peak District National Park, characterized by lush green meadows, rolling hills, and sparkling streams, offering serene and tranquil surroundings for walkers, hikers, and nature lovers to explore and connect with nature.
We had a great time trekking the hills with the Grandchildren lot's of fun. Heading on the pathway to the right hand side till you reach a gate way in the wall you have a choice we went right into the trees following the pathway is a bit muddy and I would suggest correct footwear is necessary as the terrain changes often. If you persevere and walk up to the top its a lovely panoramic view. The weather is changeable and warm waterproof clothing could be required. This a great place to get the heart pumping and bring your dog. Although there a disabled parking spots this is not a wheelchair friendly place. I did not see picnic areas or toilets.
Piethorne Valley is a hidden gem for nature lovers! The serene atmosphere, scenic trails, and breathtaking views make it an ideal destination for leisurely strolls. The well-maintained paths provide a perfect escape, allowing you to immerse yourself in the beauty of nature. Whether you're an avid hiker or just looking for a peaceful retreat, Piethorne Valley offers a delightful experience. Don't miss the chance to explore this picturesque haven--it's a must-visit for anyone seeking tranquility and natural beauty.
Nice walk, hardly anyone there. Good mixture of flat pathways, some rocky areas,and grass. I managed to walk to each of the 6 reservoirs. The car park is small,room only for about 15 cars by Ogden res, i dont know if there is another car park nearby,if not i think you would have to park on the road. I was there on a Friday morning so managed to get a space.
Another 1st & another excellent place for walking the furry ones! The area is vast, stunning views, tranquil, easy paths around the reservoirs, a real no drama trek, very calming & very picturesque! Will definitely be going back over the next few months as the seasons change. This walk can take anything from an hour to 2 hours plus, depends how many of the reservoirs you want to circumnavigate! So all in all, a really good trek, plenty to see & the dogs loved it!!
Amazing peaceful place to walk
A wonderful place to walk. There are a few routes you can take. The longest being a 2 hour walk, and a shorter one which takes 40 mins starting from the car park. Plenty of parking. Beautiful scenery.
