Standing proud at 1,600 feet (500 m) to the west of Buxton, Burbage Edge is a glorious objective. The views from its trig pillar are splendid, with rolling moorland in just about every direction. The ridge is the main watershed between the Goyt and Wye Rivers.

The path there is very wet on both sides. Avoiding the heathland is quite tiring in the long run and also wet in places. The view is very beautiful
