Grand circuit de Barlow

From the car park walk down the road towards Wildaygreen. At the post box at the end of the road bear left walking upwards. Great views over towards Chesterfield from the top. As you near the village you can see the Peacock pub on your left. Stop for a drink or a meal - they even do breakfast. Turn along the track to your left that leads to the church. This cuts a corner off and is quiet. Now head down the road passing farms and fields. Cross over the bridge at the bottom of the lane and turn right to Barlow Fisheries. Here there is a small cafe and toilets. Walk past all the lakes and along the path by the river. At the road turn up the hill. Follow the road for about 400m then bear left. Walk along this road going over the crossroads and up the hill. Open views of the valley are now behind you. Keep following the road until it turns into a woodland track. After about 20m turn left along a footpath to a farm track. The stone barn on your left is the longest in Derbyshire. Walk along the track to the end turning left back onto the road near the car park.
