The Dog and Doublet Sandon Park and Canal Walk
Location: Stafford
Difficulty: Easy

Dragon’s Back Walk
Location: Peak District, Staffordshire
Difficulty: Moderate
Walk length: Four miles
Dragon’s Back Walk takes you through the Peak District in Staffordshire, along hilltop paths, green field tracks and beautiful country lanes.
