The Inn Way . . . to the
Peak District
This is one of the `Inn Way . . .’ series of long-distance paths by Mark Reid, and charts a circular route through the heart of the Peak District. The walk is 84 miles, and connects to the Limestone Way and Pennine Way.
The path begins at Hayfield but, being a circular path, walkers can start and finish anywhere along the route. We have included public transport information.
We at Ramblefest are thankful to Mark Reid for granting us permission to use information in his guide to the route.
More information can be gained from The Inn Way . . . To The Peak District official website, where the guidebook can also be bought:

Accommodation
We have split accommodation into Hotel & Inn accommodation and Bed & Breakfast accommodation. We have included Guest House accommodation with, and while we realise many guest houses are better than some hotels, in order to avoid confusion we have opted for the simpler option.
We are always looking to improve our information, and welcome accommodation recommendations.
Restaurants and Pubs
We have attempted to give as much information as possible. When known, we have given information on pubs serving real ale and/or food. However, restaurants and pubs are notoriously changeable. Please let us know if our information is out of date.
