The picturesque village of Oakamoor is in a fantastic position in the Churnet Valley and is ideal for walkers, ramblers and cyclists with many routes running nearby. There is a disused railway which provides a link to Denstone which is fantastic for cyclists and there is a “Woods and Ways” route around the village. There are lovely locations for picnics in the village and the River Churnet runs through the centre.
