Derbyshire and the Peak District are full of beautiful walking routes, along with welcoming pubs to put your feet up afterwards – perfect if you’re looking to venture into the outdoors over the coming weeks.
Whether you want a challenging hike or a relaxed stroll, these are some of the best walks that finish at a pub across the county.

21. Ashover
If you want to take in the countryside around Ashover, there is a four mile circular route around the village - which also includes the Ashover Rock viewpoint. There are a number of pubs to stop at afterwards in the village - including the Black Swan. Photo: Brian Eyre

22. River Lathkill
The source of the River Lathkill is at Monyash, near Bakewell, and it flows through the Derbyshire Dales until it joins the River Wye at Rowsley. It is unique, as the only river in the area that flows exclusively over limestone, and it provides a very relaxing walking trail. Depending on which direction you decide to walk, you could end at either the Peacock at Rowsley or The Bulls Head at Monyash. Photo: Brian Eyre

23. Rowsley
The Rowsley circular route offers scenic countryside views and takes you back into the village - where you can visit the Grouse and Claret or The Peacock. Photo: Brian Eyre

24. Wirksworth
A circular trail will take you through the town of Wirksworth and into the surrounding countryside, where you can spot the famous Star Disc - before heading back to enjoy a drink at The Quarryman or the Hope & Anchor. Photo: Brian Eyre
