With varying length circular routes around Dovestone, Yeoman Hey and Greenfield reservoirs and surrounding hills, including a 2.5 mile wheelchair and pushchair friendly path, this is a great place for all the family. Set in the Peak District National Park and abounding with wildlife there is also a sailing club and plenty of opportunity for cycling. A 'Life for a Life' Memorial Forest was started in 1999 and its gradual maturity is adding to the splendour of this area of outstanding beauty.
