"The Peak District National Park was the very first of Britain's National Parks covering an area of 540 square miles.

The Dark Peak covering north Derbyshire and small parts of Cheshire and South Yorkshire is an area of windswept moorland, steep river valleys and impressive crags.

Further south is the White Peak; a limestone-based undulating green landscape criss-crossed by miles of dry stone walls and gently flowing rivers whilst to the west can be found the beautiful valleys and rivers of the Dales as well as the Staffordshire Moorlands.

In contrast the rest of Derbyshire offers the visitor an intriguing mix of villages and towns packed with cultural and industrial heritage and should certainly not be missed.
