On sunny weekends the occasional ice cream van is always a welcome addition to the Dovestones car park. Otherwise, the nearest place for refreshments is a pub called The Clarence, about a mile (1.6km) away in Greenfield, which serves food daily. For more choice you'll have to try the cafes and pubs of nearby Uppermill. What to look out for We’ve carefully curated some of our favorite trails in this British national park, to make sure there’s something for just about every hiking ability. There are short strolls, bracing hill walks, mystical moorland adventures, and challenging multi-day treks. Lace up your hiking boots and exercise your own right to roam as you trundle along this particularly tough trek to the peak. It’s not too hard to follow, but it is definitely challenging in both length and incline. From the top of this hill, you can see as far as Manchester, Bolton, and all the way to Snowdonia in North Wales. It’s an epic vantage point!
You can thank the protesters because now you get to enjoy all of the best hikes in Peak District without a single worry! The only thing you need is to decide which ones are best for you. Kinder Scout doesn’t sound like a tough trek at all —but trust us, it’s quite a challenge. The plateau sits at 636 meters above sea level, making it the highest point not just in the Peak District, but also in Derbyshire and the entire English East Midlands. But that doesn’t mean you should just hotfoot it off on a hike without thinking twice. The Peak District is a wild environment, so it pays to know what you should expect and what you should prepare in advance. Mam Tor, meaning “Mother Hill,” is located in the High Peak area and stands at 517 meters above sea level.

I have always found Cicerone guidebooks to be well produced with excellent introductions to the area in question and containing detailed descriptions of well-chosen walks. This new guide is no exception. Uncover 28 beautiful circular walks around the Peak District with the OS Pathfinder Guidebooks, graded by length and ranging from 3 ½ to 11 ¼ miles.

Peak District - Short Walks
From the Lord’s Seat, you descend onto the trail that winds along the ridge to Mam Tor itself, before making the short, steep ascent up the stone path to the summit. The scenery on all sides, including the Loose Hill at the far end of the ridge, makes the effort well worth it. The park is made up of roughly two sections. The Dark Peak comprises the northern reaches of the park and is generally higher and wilder; the White Peak, on the other hand, is located in the south and is better known for its beautiful valleys and gorges.

In view of the length of time and the precarious situation I have completely revised that section of the walk.
