Curbar and Froggatt Edge: 6.5 Miles Moderate
Curbar - Curbar Gap - Curbar Edge - Froggatt Edge - Longshaw Estate - Grindleford - River Derwent - Froggatt Wood - Froggatt - Calver - Curbar
A exhilarating walk over Curbar and Froggatt Edge returning along the beautiful Derwent valley. Parking is available at Curbar Gap and on a lay-by just outside Curbar.
For the best views stick to the edge of the ridge, (children will need to be supervised as there are steep drops along the walk), or you may follow the broader
path set back from the edge.
From the lay-by take the path that leads diagonally up to Curbar Gap, follow the footpath on the left to gain access to the edge. Follow the path along the top of the edge for 2.25 miles before
reaching the A625, here turn right crossing the road, and left through a gate into Haywood. Follow the path crossing a stream and up towards the car park here fork left down to a gate.
Go through the gate and continue down to another fork in the path, here turn left and continue down
