  • Freshwalks Private Corporate Events
    FRESHWALKS PRIVATE CORPORATE EVENTS • Employee engagement • Team building • Client hospitality • Creative and strategy days “ Go to a footie match, half the people are into the football, the other half are wondering why they are there. Go to a dinner, you get to talk to two people until you have bored them to death and they wander off to sit with their buddies. Go ‘freshwalking’ and you have a common purpose. You get each other up that hill and across that bog and down the other side. On the way, you talk for a while, drift off and find yourself in another conversation or even continue a conversation that you started a couple of months ago.” 02 | Freshwalks Private INTRODUCTION Glorious scenery Freshwalks Private events are a blend of full-blooded exercise, and back to nature hiking across glorious countryside and hills, deep conversations and some decent pub food after too.

  • The Ultimate Peak District & Derbyshire Bucket List
    The Ultimate Peak District & Derbyshire Bucket List: 101 Great Things To Do 1. Embrace the great outdoors in the UK’s first National Park Established in 1951, the Peak District is the country’s oldest National Park. If you love the outdoors, this protected area of natural beauty - which covers 555 square miles in total - offers over 200 square miles of stunning open access land to explore. 2. Visit the ‘jewel in the Peak District’s crown’ at Chatsworth House Home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, Chatsworth is one of the UK’s favourite stately homes. Discover over 30 magnificent rooms, a 105-acre garden, parkland, a farmyard and playground, and one of Britain’s best farm shops. 3. Conquer the tallest ‘Peak’ in the Peak District At 636 metres above sea level, you’ll feel like you’re standing on top of the world when you conquer the Kinder Scout plateau. It’s the highest point in the National Park and was also the site of the 1932 Mass Trespass, a landmark event which sparked a debate about the right to roam in the countryside, leading to the establishment of the Peak District as the first National Park two decades later. 4. Discover the UK’s oldest Ice Age cave art at Creswell Crags Walk in the footsteps of Ice Age hunters, uncover the secrets of early man, discover incredible Ice Age cave art and marvel at the UK’s largest discovery of ritual protection marks at this picturesque limestone gorge on the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire border. 5.

  • National Park Management Plan 2018-2023
    Peak District National Park Management Plan 2018-23 National Park Management Plan Peak District National Park Authority, Aldern House Baslow Road, Bakewell, DE45 1AE tel: 01629 816200 email: [email protected] www.peakdistrict.gov.uk 2 Peak District National Park Management Plan 2018-23 Foreword The Peak District National Park plays a special role well beyond its borders. It is of international, national, regional, and local importance. As well as providing a breathing space and opportunities for learning, discovery and enjoyment for millions of people, the designation of National Parks is because of their spectacular landscapes, wildlife and cultural heritage - the ‘special qualities’ that make them so important. The management plan is a framework that aims to encourage everyone to work together to conserve and enhance the special qualities for the benefit of all. It is not a plan for an individual organisation or group but a plan for the place. It is, therefore, a partnership plan. It describes for everyone what the main issues and priorities are. It then sets out how, together, we are going to tackle those issues over the next five years. One of the great successes of the previous management plan was that it brought together a diverse range of stakeholders who delivered some amazing work. These included restoring thousands of hectares of important habitat, introducing new audiences to the Peak District National Park, helping local communities to deliver essential services and assisting businesses to grow sustainably. During this management plan period fresh challenges have emerged through the nation’s pending departure from the European Union alongside developing ideas in how we should manage protected landscapes.
