Welcome to Grough-Stuff Walks

Grough-Stuff Walks offers personally led guided walks to anyone wanting to explore the Peak District and Derbyshire.
 
Who comes on a Grough-Stuff Walk?
 
Well, actually, anyone & everyone! Whether you're a tourist visiting the Peak District for the first time or someone that just doesn't know where best to walk or maybe not fully confident in being able to navigate yourself safely across the high moors? Perhaps you would just like the reassurance and unique knowledge that only a local guide can provide? If so, then Grough-Stuff Walks is the choice for you.
 
Operating predominantly at the weekends, Grough-Stuff Walks can cater for both individuals and groups.
 
The Peak District is a 'Special Place'. Home to the UK's first and most visited National Park, the region boasts the most beautiful and diverse countryside, from the wild, high moorlands of the North (Dark Peak), to the rolling hills, gently flowing rivers and picture postcard villages of the South (White Peak).
 
 
 
Grough-Stuff Walks will guide you on a walk through this fantastic landscape. Walking is by far, the best way to appreciate the Peak District. Experience the real Peak District by getting off the beaten track. See the places other people don't even know exist.
 
 


Why "Grough-Stuff"?

The Northern Moors of the Peak District are a unique environment. The high moors of The Dark Peak rise to more than 2000 feet, the highest hill being Kinder Scout at 2088ft (636 metres). The tops of these high moors are covered in a thick blanket of "peat". Streams and rivers have carved deep channels through the peat and down to the bedrock. These deep channels are locally known as "Groughs" (pronounced "Gruffs"). Some are more than 20ft deep! It's a bit like walking through an enormous 'maze'! Crossing this landscape is exhausting work. Navigating in a straight line is nigh on impossible and when the mist comes down......many people shout for HEEEELP!!

Don't be a casualty, let Grough-Stuff guide you!
