Having walked all of the Inn Way routes, must say this book equals the best of them. The peak district contains a wealth of variety in terms of terrain, scenery and beers! Many of the country's finest pubs are visited on this route. Visit the Inn Way website for further details - www.innway.co.uk.
This book (in common with the other Inn Way titles) is highly recommended. Hope you enjoy the walk as much as I did.

The Inn Way to the Peak District
"The Inn Way... to the Peak District" - 6 days, 84 miles, 51 pubs.

This book has taken me over 2 years to research and write, in which time I have walked over 650 miles of footpaths and visited well over 100 pubs. The result is Book Six in 'The Inn Way' series that charts a 6-day long distance circular walk through the heart of the Peak District taking in the very best the area has to offer from the wilds of Kinder Scout to the dramatic gritstone eastern edges, Chatsworth Park, the mystical landscape of Stanton Moor, Lathkill Dale and Monsal Dale, the Plague village of Eyam, Castleton and its caverns, Mam Tor and Edale. Not to mention 51 great pubs along the way...

As featured in Country Walking magazine (July 2007 issue).

I hope you enjoy walking this route as much as I have enjoyed researching and writing it.

Cheers!
