A complete 190-mile circular walk around the edge of the Peak District National Park in the North of England.
From £1000 per person
New Trail for 2018!
This wonderful trail circumnavigates Britain’s first designated National Park and showcases some of the most stunning scenery the Peak District has to offer.
This largely quiet, circular walk stretches from the wild moorland of the South Pennines to the beautiful limestone landscapes of the Derbyshire Dales, whilst also skirting the urban edges of Sheffield and Oldham, passing Staffordshire’s rugged moorland and traversing Cheshire’s rolling hills.
The views and settlements along the way are diverse and constantly changing, offering new sights at every turn. The walk utilises a mixture of footpaths, quiet lanes, former railway lines and more rugged terrain as it explores the many little-known gems of the Peak District, making this walk a satisfying adventure for everyone.
