Gritstone edges, limestone dales, and England's first national park
Dramatic gritstone ridges, limestone valleys, open moorland, and rolling farmland create a landscape shaped by geology, industry, and centuries of rural life. Spanning parts of Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Cheshire, Greater Manchester, and Yorkshire, the Peak District National Park offers some of England's most varied walking, from high moorland plateaus to sheltered river valleys and picturesque villages.
Long-distance trails such as the Pennine Way, Limestone Way, White Peak Way, and sections of the Trans Pennine Trail pass through the national park, linking places including Castleton, Bakewell, Edale, Hathersage, Hartington, and Ashbourne. Moorland paths, limestone tracks, riverside routes, and hilltop trails reveal changing views across gritstone edges, deep dales, reservoirs, and open countryside, creating journeys closely connected to the character of the landscape.
Whether crossing the Dark Peak uplands, exploring the limestone scenery of the White Peak, or following a long-distance trail between villages and valleys, the Peak District rewards time spent on foot. Varied landscapes, rich heritage, and an exceptional network of routes make it one of England's most rewarding destinations for self-guided travel.
