Derbyshire and the Peak District are perfect to explore over the autumn months – with historic villages, scenic viewpoints and award-winning attractions dotted across the county.
We asked Derbyshire Times readers where they would take a friend of theirs who has never visited the area and compiled a list of their responses – along with other spots that are popular among both visitors and locals alike.
The full list can be found below, and the places are not ranked in any order – will you be visiting any of them over the coming weeks?
13. Edale
Edale is the starting point of the Pennine Way, a trail that stretches for 268 miles between the Peak District National Park and Scotland. The village is a perfect base from which to explore some of the Peak District’s most popular hikes - including Kinder Scout and Mam Tor. Photo: Brian Eyre
