About the Peak District Mighty Hike
The Peak District Mighty Hike is your chance to explore the beauty of the Peak District, England’s oldest National Park! Starting in Bakewell, this is one of our flatter hikes, where you’ll walk alongside crystal-clear rivers and disused railways, with fantastic views over the countryside along the Pennine Bridgeway and Midshires Way.
Hike solo and meet friends along the way or sign up with a team of friends and family for a memorable day together.
"We laughed, we cried, we cursed those miles that seemed to stretch endlessly but we enjoyed every second." Jenny, Peak District 2025
