White edgeには素晴らしい景色があり、人気のBaslowやcurbar edgeよりも人が少ないです。

Heights of Abraham great views

This is a pleasant quieter walk as most seem to keep to froggatt and curbar. If your lucky the stag and doe's will be about especially in the autum and spring.

The trig point stands on the northern end of White Edge Moor, at 1,198 ft (365 m), just short of the highest point. The trail along the whole edge is great to run and works very well as a loop with the trail along Froggatt and Curbar edge.

19th century pleasure ground which exploited the dramatic qualities of the Derwent valley. Peter Arkwright of Willersley Castle enclosed the grounds c 1860 and constructed pedestrian paths from a new entrance on the south side approached from the bridge to Matlock Bath railway station. The entrance from Starkholmes Road was retained and could be used by carriages. A pathway was formed through Fern Cave (scheduled ancient monument) and another on a narrow ledge along part of the cliff face. In 1879 the grounds were leased to the Matlock and High Tor Recreation Grounds Company Ltd and Milner of London was retained to supervise landscaping. Arkwright's Grand Walk, also used by carriages, was created, leading south to the summit from a gateway in Pig Tree Lane, now Pic Tor Lane. A refreshment room was erected near the summit, tennis and quoit or skittle grounds were constructed close to a modified southern entrance and additional paths put in with a broad flight of steps.

Alas, the previously awesome views from the trig point are long gone due to tree growth. Today the trig point is a waypoint only; for views head over to Black Rocks.

Bolehill (Cromford Moor) is 323 metres high and is one of the 95 Ethels (Peak District Hills).
