WHITE TO DARK WAY | Peak District Walks | Peak District Camping

What is the White to Dark route?
The White to Dark Way is a 27.5 mile hiking trail, covering the very best of The Peak District. Starting in Bakewell and finishing in Hope, the route covers both The White Peak and The Dark Peak. It is an insanely beautiful hike and is best covered over 3 days as it has a fair bit of elevation.

Where is the prettiest place in The Peak District?
This really does depend, as opinions are often divided, but some of the prettiest areas are Monsal Head, Monsal Dale, Eyam Village and Hope Valley. The White to Dark Peak Hike covers all of these places!

I led a group of 10 people from my Officially Smashed It hiking club on this trail over the weekend, for this reason we decided not to do any Peak District wild camping, as our group was so large. We opted instead for two campsites, the first night was at a farm opposite The Yonderman Café and the second was North Lees campsite. I did however, note a number of fantastic potential wild camping spots along the way.
