Hello everyone!
For our first official hike of the new year, we’re heading to the iconic Stanage Edge from Hathersage in the Peak District! Stanage Edge is renowned for its dramatic gritstone escarpment, offering sweeping views across the rolling hills and valleys of Derbyshire. It’s the perfect way to kick off our hiking adventures for the year, immersing ourselves in classic Peak District scenery.
The route is approximately 9 miles. It’s considered moderate: expect some steady climbs, rocky trails, and the classic windswept edges that give Stanage its unique character.
We’ll be meeting at Lime Street for 8:00am and aim to arrive at Hathersage station by 10:45am. Please be punctual so we can make the most of our day on the trails.
Equipment:
This hike is a fantastic way to ease into the new year, challenge yourself on varied terrain, and soak in some of the most beautiful vistas the Peak District has to offer.
A quick reminder: Only purchase a railcard ticket if you have a valid railcard.
Looking forward to hitting the trails with you all and starting the year on a high!
