Baslow Edge is a less crowded but equally stunning gritstone ridge, offering sweeping views over Chatsworth and the Derwent Valley. It’s popular with walkers and has a tranquil, wilder feel than its neighbours. If you’re lucky, you might spot the friendly herd of highland cows that often graze the area, adding to the charm of this peaceful spot.
