 Welcome to the ‘Louise Smalley Walk’ website!

The Louise Smalley Walk is an annual sponsored challenge walk, 40 miles in length.

We hold the walk to help raise money for local charities and good causes.
We are based in Whitwell, North East Derbyshire.

Save the date: 17th June 2023

2023 Matlock Route
2023 will see the introduction of a new route. Whilst Ian (the route designer) and other members of the wider LSW family are finalising the route descriptions, the first draft of maps can be found on our walk descriptions page. As the final route and walk notes are completed, they will be uploaded and shared on the page. These can also be found by following the link below.
