- Hey! We're back on another adventure, this time exploring the Peak District for the very first time!
The Peak District National Park is situated towards the northern part of central England. The National Park is located mostly in northern Derbyshire, although it also reaches into Cheshire, Yorkshire, Staffordshire and Greater Manchester. This makes this scenic holiday hotspot incredibly easy to access from Nottingham, Manchester, Sheffield and Derby.
Much of the landscape here is green, rugged and natural. Every twist and turn in the road leads to yet more far-reaching views across hills and dales.
We live only two and a half hours away from the Peak District and even we were amazed at how different the landscape is.
Our first activity of the trip was a circular walk up Mam Tor, followed by a quick supermarket shop and a delicious evening meal at the Cambodian restaurant, Kambuja.
The next day we took a stroll around the beautiful Ladybower Reservoir and took in the sights of Derwent Dam.
We had a very early start the next day to watch the sunrise at Winnats Pass and visited Three Shires Head waterfall for a cold water swim. In the afternoon we wrapped up the day by visiting the magnificent Thor's Cave.
On our final day we visited the picturesque town of Bakewell to try some delicious Bakewell tart and indulge in a spot of afternoon tea.

We're Shadiya and Elliot of Plants, My Wife and I and we're a married couple living on the coast of North Yorkshire.
We love exploring new places and being out amongst nature, so being able to combine those two things on our travels is our most favourite thing to do.
When travelling, we aim to see the most iconic sights whilst also getting off the beaten path to find the true beauty of a place. This means our trips often combine sight seeing with long walks!

Lovely video. But missed the best. Bakewell pudding Mmm
Nothing like the Bakewell tart.
Peak District is certainly beautiful.
Had a caravan there for 12yrs on a seasonal pitch. Absolutely loved it. But my wife sadly passed away last year. And lost my love for caravanning.
So bought a Campervan instead & touring the country.
I'm 78 & really enjoying it. Looking forward to watching you again
Great video, thank you! I've watched quite a few Peak District vlogs while researching an upcoming weekend break and yours is by the far the most entertaining and informative.
Glad you enjoyed it. But as you know there is so much more! I would suggest the lesser-known hamlets up around the moors around Bonsall, the almost hidden paths through the hills and old limestone quarries near places like Longstone, Monyash and Peak Forest, as well as the famous gritstone edges near Curbar, the climbs around the Buxton/Leek road and the walks around the river Dove - Thorpe Cloud is a must. Monk's Dale is amazingly beautiful, Magpie mine is awesome and it, and the chambered tomb between Taddington and Chelmorton, can both be made midway points on some lovely walks, especially in spring/summer. And don't miss Ashbourne: the memorial sculpture to the little girl in the church there is a national treasure and you'll never forget it - or the magnificent church.
Exploring the Peak District over the course of three days offers a delightful opportunity to immerse oneself in the natural beauty and cultural heritage of this stunning national park in England.

It looks nice and green but it looks like more of a beautiful rural country side rather than a national park . A mist lovely video anyway .
Will def do this, when i learn how to drive
Очень красивое место❤❤❤
wonderful upload 💕💕new subscriber 🙋🇮🇳
More or less local, markets on a Monday. Great place but watch out for traffic jams caused by the staff on river car park directing traffic
What's a good accommodation to stay at that is in the vicinity of must see areas of the Peak District?
Is there a chance of traveling to the peak district by public transport?
Nice video. My only complaint; she needs better taste in ball caps.
Where did you stay? Xx
