Peak District Hiking Weekend / All Levels Welcome / August Bank Holiday

Details

PEAK DISTRICT NATIONAL PARK / 26 - 29 AUGUST 2022

Number of nights - 3
Cost - GBP 250 per person in shared accommodation. Breakfast and lunch included.

Wanderlust Walks are traveling to the Peak District this August Bank Holiday for a long-weekend getaway in this amazing and contrasting landscape, shaped by variations in geology and landform.

We have managed to secure a limited number of beds at a lovely hostel surrounded by nature, only a short drive from the start points of our hikes.

Nature at its best
The Peak District became the first of the national parks of England and Wales, and is today one of the most popular to visit. Join us for a fresh breath off air during this weekend getaway to the Peaks; a place with rich diversity of natural and cultural heritage. The hiking routes will suit all levels and beginners too. Expect to come across beautiful scenery, grouse, goats, and unbelievable views from the tops of the mountains. However many times we visit this area, we are wowed by the variety and beauty this place has to offer.

INCLUDED

  • 3 nights hotel accommodation in a lovely YHA hostel.
  • 3 days of guided hiking.
  • Breakfast x 3
  • Pre-packed lunch x 3
  • Self catering facilities for your convenience.

The price does not include:

  • Dinner - the hostel will be serving dinners at a good price.
  • Transport expenses.

I recommend a car share for your journey up to the Peak District. Please comment if you are looking for a lift. The drive is around 3-4hr so it will be a late return on Monday. Feel free to email me if you need help with transportation.

Your Guide
Monica is an expert hike leader in Norway and throughout the UK and have been hiking since she was 7 years old. Founder of Wanderlust Walks Ltd. with Meetup groups in London and Norway. Emergency First-Aider trained.

The Hikes
The routes will be decided closer to the time and the itinerary shared with all participants pre-departure. Saturday and Sunday will include full day outings with a shorter one on Monday as we will be returning to London on this day. We will be walking in rugged terrain, both uphill and downhill and find a good recreational walking speed to be about 2 miles / 3.2 km per hour. The hikes will be between 6-10 miles (10-16km) on the Saturday and Sunday with a shorter one on Monday.

Wanderlust Walks is a supportive and diverse community of both international members as well as locals, where everyone is welcome to join our events as long as it suits your physical abilities. Well-being and social togetherness is at the forefront of what we do, and we will always make time for conversations, photography and to observe nature and wildlife, and to keep a pace which allows for everyone to walk together.

We are mainly speaking English, but I gladly speak Norwegian with those who prefer to do so.

Don´t hesitate to send me a private message if you have any queries/concerns and I will get back to you asap.

Happy trails! :-)
