Join a Hike & Sketch adventure in the Peak District, exploring the fascinating gritstone landscapes of Birchen Edge. Along the way we'll discover sweeping views across the Derwent Valley, iconic landmarks, rich local history and plenty of inspiring places to pause and sketch.
This relaxed guided experience combines a beautiful Peak District walk with beginner-friendly outdoor sketching, giving you the opportunity to slow down, notice the landscape in a different way and reconnect with your creativity.
No artistic experience is needed. Whether you've never picked up a sketchbook before or you're a regular doodler, this is about enjoying the process - not creating a perfect drawing.

🪨 The dramatic rock formations of Birchen Edge and Gardoms Edge
🌄 Beautiful views across the Derwent Valley
⚓ The famous Three Ships carved into the gritstone
🗿 Historic Nelson's Monument, commemorating Admiral Nelson
🌿 Peaceful woodland and moorland trails
✏️ Several relaxed sketching stops inspired by the landscape around us
We'll pause at a number of beautiful viewpoints and landmarks, giving you time to sketch, take photographs or simply enjoy the surroundings.
