    A delightful loop walk that tackles the wonderful Win Hill - one of the few actual 'peaks' in the Peak District, and then makes the most of the height gain with a long and leisurely return to the starting point near the Yorkshire Bridge.
    As with many good walks, this one starts with a short and savage climb up from the parking gaining all your height pretty much in the first 20 minutes. Once up high you get super 360 degree views from the top of Win Hill which must be one of the best summits in the Peak. From here the walk offers delightful views for most of its length as you walk along the double-back and drop down towards the tiny village of Aston. A short road section (very quiet) follows before more pleasant fields lead back to the start.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
