Enjoying nature and being in the great outdoors while bask in blazing winter sun can feel like a real boost for the soul.
Walks are a great and pocket-friendly way to spend a few hours reconnecting with nature.
A nice stroll is magically transformed into an unforgettable afternoon thanks to pretty views overlooking the countryside, which our beautiful county boasts an abundance of.
Walking sessions - no matter how short or brisk - are also a great way to introduce younger ones to the benefits of walking in the great outdoors. Just make sure the trail you are embarking on is safe and easy to navigate.
Why not make the most of the winter sunshine and enjoy the wider Peak District in its full glory.
Forget your phone, sling on your hiking boots and make an afternoon of it by exploring our beautiful region with loved ones.
If you wanted to go all out, why not consider a stopover near one of the walking trails, to incorporate bracing walks across Derbyshire?
From Peak District favourites such as the jaw-dropping Curbar Edge, to grounds of the world-famous Chatsworth House, here is our photo gallery packed with walks offering breath-taking views to beat the January blues.
