Britain's What's On Event Guide
Birchen Edge & Chatsworth Guided Walk – Dog Friendly (Peak District)
Join Alex and Leia for a beautiful guided walk exploring Chatsworth Park and the rugged gritstone edges of Birchen Edge — a perfect blend of history, scenery, and adventure.
We’ll begin in the grand surroundings of Chatsworth House, then climb onto open moorland with incredible views across the Peak District. Along the way, we’ll visit the Nelson and Wellington Monuments, dramatic tributes to British naval heroes.
Expect a mix of parkland paths, steep climbs, and open moorland trails. It’s a varied route with plenty to see — from sweeping views to friendly Highland cattle on Baslow Edge!
What to Expect
9-mile (14.5 km) guided circular walk
Steady climb from Chatsworth onto Birchen Edge
Visits to Nelson and Wellington Monuments
Mix of parkland, woodland, and moorland terrain
Some short road sections and crossings
Dog-friendly walk (leads required near livestock and deer)
At this time of year, the ground can be soft underfoot — so bring sturdy boots, waterproofs, and a smile.
