It includes the popular site of Mother Hill, also known as Mam Tor above the village of Castleton which can be seen from our campsite. This particular walk is great for those who want to adventure to some of the quieter and slightly less walked areas of the Peak District. Using a mixture of paths, tracks and quiet country lanes and includes walking the main ridge of Rushup Edge, this route takes you from Mam Tor to Old Dam & Sparrowpit before finishing back at Castleton.
