Mam Tor Ridge Path

This ridge has been on my bucket list for a while and at long last we got to do it. Amazing! Lots of different routes up and down to make it longer if needed. A well footpathed route, no chance of getting lost. Quite busy for a Friday but not over powering. On a clear day the views are outstanding.

What stunning views, especially after the recent snowfall mid-November 2024. A few people out enjoying the exercise and brisk cold air along the ridge. If you've not been then you are missing a treat. Parking is free midweek and there is plenty of roadside parking available or good rail links to Hathersage.

The Mam Tor Ridge Path, also known as the Great Ridge, is a must-visit in the Peak District. This stunning trail stretches from Lose Hill to Mam Tor, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys, including Edale and Hope Valley. The hike is moderately challenging but rewards you with panoramic vistas and picturesque landscapes at every turn. Ideal for hikers, runners, and photographers, the path is well-maintained and provides an unforgettable outdoor experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!
