Bamford edge at sunrise
The hope Valley in the Peak District. This photo is taken from Mam Tor and the bronze age hill fort on top of there which is 3000 years old
Stunning views from the top of Bamford Edge looking towards Ladybower reservoir, the walk from the road takes around 25 minutes and is quite steep for the 1st half of the walk, but the views from the top are just staggering
Lovely views over Ladybower Reservoir and the Derwent Valley in the Peak District, Derbyshire. Spectacular sunsets.
One of the best view points in Derbyshire, overlooking the Ladybower Reservoir

Burbage Brook is in Padley Gorge in the beautiful Peak District. Park at the National Trust Longshaw Estate and take a walk down to the brook but wear sensible shoes as its hilly and uneven and you may need to hop across stones.
