PEAK DISTRICT
Hathersage - Owler Tor & Higger Tor - Approx 5.5 Miles (8.5KM)
We parked at Suprise View Car park - A6187, Grindleford, Sheffield, Hope Valley S32 2JA. The second half of the journey is easier terrain, so would suggest going past 'Over Owler Tor' and 'Higger Tor' first, so that the second half is easier. This took us around 2 hours, and then we headed into Bakewell for some lunch.

Hope, Win Hill, Nether Booth, Edale, Mam Tor, Back Tor, Lose Hill - Approx 13 miles (21KM)
We did this walk from - www.walkingenglishman.com/ in 2017, and it has been our favourite walk ever since, so we did it again. This time we stayed in a camping site in Hope, and left directly from there, so there was no need to drive & park. We stopped at the Ramblers Inn for lunch, which does great food! We get caught up chatting some times, and then make a few wrong turns, so normally we do slightly more than 21KM - but it's an easy enough route to navigate. It takes us about 8 hours, as we stop for lunch.

Campsites
Laneside Caravan & Camping Park - Station Rd, Hope, Hope Valley S33 6RR
The Toilets & Shower Facilities here were great! They also offer breakfast rolls from 8am, and had a small shop on site. You were allowed BBQs, and campfires, as long as they were both raised off the ground. The pitches are set up more like a caravan park, as it is predominantly a caravan park, so you don't have a large grassy field to pitch in, so you have to set up your living outdoor quarters to the side of the tent. Hope is within a 5 min walk, and has a great Indian restaurant, and also has a pub and a spar shop.
