The Southern area of the Peak District's 1013 square miles is praised for its scenic gorge like dales, the most popular being Dovedale.  Matlock is centre of the eastern part of the county which includes the coal fields of central England.

The Dales lie within the Peak District National Park and are surrounded by the high windswept moors, which are capable of dramatic weather changes.

An area ideal for cycling and easy walking, the Dales offer many remnants of the Industrial Revolution, including Textile Mills, Canals and redundant Mines.

The pointed crest of Thorpe Cloud over looks the entrance to Dove Dale, being one of Britain's finest Gorges which with Manifold Valley are a delight to Walk or Cycle through.

Derbyshire is rich in abbeys, castles and old houses, and prehistoric stone circles and later Roman remains for those interested in the past to investigate on their travels.
