Circular Low Level Edale Walk

This is an easy circular walk from the National Trust that starts from the Edale railway station in the Peak District. Following the Pennine Way from the train station, this easy walk takes you along the Edale valley to Upper Booth. It’s then a short descent to Barber Booth before a return along the valley, along the railway line, back to the start.

While it’s a short walk, you could also use this route in order to travel along the valley bottom to return from one of the many other walks up the nearby hills.

More information about this low level circular walk can be found on the National Trust website – The Vale of Edale, the Penny Pot Cafe, and the Pennine Way
