Dark Peak, Derbyshire

View from Mam Tor to Castleton Valley in the Peak District National Park, Derbyshire — Run in dramatic landscapes at the places we look after in the Peak District

Mam Tor stands at the western end of the Hope Valley, its dramatic landslip showing the insides of what would otherwise be a gently rolling hill.

Run up the stone steps to the summit for dramatic panoramic views.

Alternatively visit Kinder Scout, the highest spot in the Peak District, a windswept plateau with mysterious rock formations, for more challenging terrain.
