Gear 1 - A nice, easy and natural pace that you can do for extended periods with recovery periods where appropriate. Short hills might be introduced.

Duration - one hour, walk grade - 2.  Often people say that they are afraid of joining a guided walk because they don’t want to hold back the group.  Well this walk is designed for those who don’t want to be rushed.  It’s conducted at the pace of the slowest walker.  Faster walkers can go ahead and we will have regular catch-up and re-groupings.

Nestling on the edge of the Peak District, Lyme was once home to the Legh family, and in its heyday a great sporting estate. 

The estate is 1400 acres, so offers lots of different walks with stunning views, and we may see some of their famous deer herd too.

Optional coffee and cake afterwards in The Timberyard Cafe, or The Hall. 

There is a short warm-up before the walk and stretches after it.  

Whilst we do understand that sometimes it is not possible to make a class, please be aware that we do operate a no refund policy if you give us less than 24 hours’ notice. To see the full policy click HERE
