Padley Gorge
Padley Gorge is an ancient, beech tree lined gorge. In Autumn when the leaves change to their golden colour, Padley Gorge becomes a magical place to walk.
A marvellous walk is to start at the Grindleford Station Café (superb), follow Padley Gorge up to the National Trust Longshaw Estate and loop back round.
Often a pleasant, shaded walk on a hot sunny day albeit with some challenging terrain.
