The Duffield Skyline and Other Walks in Derbyshire, Lionel Bailey - The picturesque and charming village of Duffield and the surrounding areas of beauty in Derbyshire have fantastic walking routes for both the experienced hiker and the more casual walker. Each section contains clear and precise walk data which identifies the start point and how to get there, and gives information on local conveniences and refreshments, height gain and a summary of the route. Every route features a map showing the direction to walk and key features along the route. Route details give comprehensive directions and facts on various landmarks passed by. This detailed and informative walking guide contains 20 circular routes, from 4-1/2 miles to 20 miles in length, with each route consisting of four components. Many of the routes are based on original charity walks. Dr James Mason of Duffield organised an annual sponsored walk to support the homeless people of Derby, known as the Duffield Deanery walk, which visited the churches in the Deanery. This explains why churches feature significantly as stopping points or points of reference. The routes have been planned to minimize road walking, mainly crossing fields and tracks. They will take you past some interesting sights including churches, farms, World Heritage sites, pubs and mills. Varied and challenging - if you choose - this guide is a must for walking enthusiasts, whether local or visitors to Derbyshire.  Published March 10.
