This scenic drive is easily
accessible from Buxton. Take the "Long Hill" road from
the centre of the town. Drive past a caravan site on your right
and a few farms on your left. When you reach the top of the hill
there is a turning on your left signposts towards the Goyt
Valley. Take this single track road do towards Errwood
Reservoir. Drive over the dam and up a steep hill and turn
right. You now drive along the Reservoir, past two parking
areas. The road now becomes one-way so you must now continue up
the valley towards Derbyshire Bridge (footbridge). |

|
| There is another parking
area near the bridge so you can explore this area on foot if you
wish. Finally the road rises out of the valley near a toilet
bock. Turn right and a few hundred years later turn left. You
wiggle across Goyt Moss and then take a right on the A54 back
down the hill towards Buxton. The Goyt Valley can be very
popular especially during bank holiday weekends and the warmer
summer months. |
