The Peak District National Park has launched free audio walking guides at its Bakewell Visitor Centre.
The Peak Experience offers 13 audio-trails and three podcasts, accompanied by printed maps.
Visitors can download the ATS-Heritage-produced walks onto their MP3 players, such as iPods, at touch-screen machines either at Bakewell Visitor Centre until April and at Castleton Visitor Centre thereafter, or direct from the park’s website at www.peak-experience.org.uk.
Project officer Dan Boys said: “The download centre is a brilliant way of acquiring your very own personal walking guide, for free, which you can use at your leisure.
“The guides are packed with information about the landscape and buildings, covering historic and archaeological sites, geology, wildlife and folklore.”
Themed trails in the series – financed by the European Union regional development fund and the Derby and Derbyshire Rural Action Zone – include Film and Literature locations and Time Travellers.
