Bespoke Private Guided Walks
myGuidedWalks is a multi award winning company that specialises in providing personalised guiding services in the Peak District. We will lead you safely on the routes you've always aspired to and create itineraries focused on what you want to achieve and where and when you'd like to go. We also specialise in nature, photography and the moorland environment with Mountain Hares being a particular highlight. You can also book a private guiding session and use it as your very own training course with content tailored to your needs or we can put together a trek training programme to get you ready for a big adventure.
We have recently received two more awards, Experience of the Year Gold Award and Ethical, Responsible & Sustainable Tourism Silver Award.
Private guiding is ideal for individuals, couples, families, corporate groups and clubs.

This will be clearly identified and included in the price quoted for your itinerary. Such costs will be kept to a minimum and avoided where possible.
Recommended Equipment & Clothing
Appropriate walking clothing to keep you warm on the day (no jeans as they can be cold if wet).
Waterproof jacket.
Waterproof trousers.
Spare warm layers (several thinner layers are more versatile than 1 thick).
Walking boots (some areas are rough and uneven so boots that go above the ankle, providing good ankle support, are recommended rather than low cut walking/trail shoes. Boots will also keep your feet drier than walking shoes in boggy/muddy areas). We can advise you as to what would be appropriate for your walk and we can also recommend more accessible routes that do not require walking boots if appropriate.
Warm hat and gloves or sun hat if sunny.
Food, drink and snacks for the day. We will have a couple of food stops whilst out on the hill.
Personal first aid kit (for minor cuts, blisters, sun cream, pain relief and any personal medication).
Rucksack with waterproof liner/bag.
Money for parking and/or cafe
Hand sanitiser and face covering recommended A face mask/covering does not need to be worn, however whilst virus levels remain high it would be recommended in emergency situations to help protect people whilst providing first aid or assistance, or when entering busy cafes and toilet areas.
Optional additions: camera, gaiters and/or walking poles if you have them.
