Lud's Church - The Wandering Wildflower

This Luds Church and The Roaches walk is just over 8.5 miles long and includes the summit of Gradbach Hill. With the mysterious Lud's Church to explore and rocks on The Roaches to scramble, this is a great walk for kids. We last visited The Roaches as part of a longer Ethels walk but our route that day didn't include Lud's Church. We'd always said we would revisit with Hols, so this time we ... READ MORE »

Monsal Trail | 8 Miles

August 17, 2022 PEAK DISTRICT WALKS

Monsal Head - Fin Cop - Longstone Moor - Wardlow Hay Cop - Waterfall Swallet Walk - The Wandering Wildflower

The Monsal Trail is an 8.5 mile traffic free route running from Blackwell Mill in Cheedale to Bakewell. The route is a former railway line and winds its way through the beautiful Peak District countryside.   I feel like I should preface this Monsal Trail route by saying we didn't walk it - we cycled it! I know this is a walking blog but it's the school holidays and I'm mixing things ...

ABOUT ME

Y Garn with Kids - Y Garn via the Devil's Kitchen Walk in Ogwen Valley

Hello! I’m Jo! Welcome to The Wandering Wildflower, an outdoors lifestyle blog focusing on family walks in the Peak District, a place we love exploring. I want to share the Peak District hidden gems and show you there’s so much more than the honeypot places. When I’m not dragging my husband and now 11 year old out on Peak District walks or up mountains, I can be found on planning my next moorland walk or plotting a Geocache walk (and seeing where the nearest pub is!). I love the hills but hate the heights, so trig bagging is – er- fun!

 

I hope this blog will give you some ideas of places to visit in the Peak District and inspire you and your family to head into the great outdoors.  Thanks for stopping by!
