The Cascade and fountains play 11am–4.30pm in season but are switched off in high wind or frost.
Stand Wood tracks are muddy for days after heavy rain; the Baslow path and Calton Lees road are surfaced and fine.
Fog in the Derwent valley on autumn mornings often burns off by 11; the edges above it can be in sunshine.
Add 20–30 minutes to any walk that climbs to the Hunting Tower or the edges when it is wet.
