"BECAUSE WHEN YOU STOP AND LOOK AROUND, THIS LIFE IS PRETTY AMAZING"
Dr Suess
Edale
Fieldhead is located in the centre of the picturesque village of Edale in the Peak District National Park. The Moorland Centre has lots of local information and gifts on offer, a great place to stop before you start your day.
​
Edale also has two welcoming pubs; The Old Nags Head and The Rambler Inn that both offer great food and drink, perfect as a reward after a long days walk.
​
There are also a two cafe's; Penny Pot Café and Newfold Farm Cafe, where you can get you a lovely coffee or a hot chocolate, and even a bite to eat to take on your adventure.
​
Forgotten that essential item, then Edale General Store is the place to go, just a short walk to the end of the village.
The perfect base for outdoor activities
Being at the foot of Kinder Scout, and the start (or Southern end) of the Pennine Way, it is a popular location for hikers and mountain bikers. There are a variety of routes to places such as; Jacob's Ladder, Grindsbrook Clough, Hollins Cross, Rushup Edge, Win Hill and Mam Tor to name a few all of which very close by.
​
AND ONLY A SHORT DRIVE AWAY...
You can find Castleton Caves just over the hill. And well known climbing areas such as Stanage Edge, Millstone Edge and Burbage.
​
Lady Bower Reservoir is also not far, with bike hire facilities available at Fairholmes at the foot of the dam or at the Bike Garage in Bamford, its a great place for a mountain biking trip or easy access walking for all the family.
​
So whether it is walking, running, climbing, mountain biking, road cycling, wild swimming, caving or simply pottering round scenic villages then you'll find it all here not far from Fieldhead Campsite in Edale.
