Join an expert from our landscape team on a two hour walking tour of Stand wood, exploring the historic waterways which feed the Chatsworth Estate. The tour will guide visitors to the lakes at the top of the Stand Wood, before following a trail through the historic woodland discovering the water courses and human interventions that are dotted throughout.
This small group tour (max 20 attendees) will offer plenty of opportunity to speak to our landscape team and ask questions about the historic water courses and how they are managed, and Stand Wood and its importance to the Chatsworth Estate.
The tour will take place whatever the weather so please dress appropriately. We recommend sturdy boots or wellies and warm wet weather clothes. The route includes some steep inclines and steps and walking along forest tracks with the potential for mud. Unsuitable for buggies or wheelchairs. Please meet at the top of Lodge hill outside the entrance to the stables.

Our country cottages, shepherd's huts, hotels, and inns are the perfect base for exploring all that Chatsworth, Derbyshire, and the Peak District has to offer. Find out more.
