WalksYou are in: Derby > Places > Walks > Miller's Dale Abseiling in Miller's Dale Miller's DaleBy Pete Hawkins This is a walk which is great at any time of year - superb for spring flowers, summer shade, autumnal hues or winter starkness. It takes you through the popular Miller's Dale area of Derbyshire.
Make your way onto the main platform. Here the National Park has installed a small display about the area (and there are loos). Walk down the platform, (turn left when facing the station buildings) and follow the cinder path onto the former track bed. Continue along this path past the disused lime-kiln (worth a look from above and below) until you reach the viaduct - you may be lucky enough to see people abseiling off this (license needed). Here there is an option:- either take the steep steps down to the river side from the nearside of the bridge, or continue over the bridge and take the path via the five bar gate across the sloping meadow to the side the river. Signs in Miller's Dale (Pete Hawkins) Cross the bridge (looking out for trout), turn right and follow the stream as it runs down towards the railway viaduct. (You can ascend here and retrace your steps to the start if you wish). The riverside path continues, however, back to the B6049 in Miller's Dale. Here, the short, steep, stepped path will take you back to the car park, or the quick route to the caf茅 is via the side road. A short walk along the main road (past the craft supplies shop) will bring you to the Angler's Rest. last updated: 06/04/2008 at 18:34 Have Your SayHave you done this walk?
