I slowly walked up onto the summit of Mam Tor and to my surprise there was already there was a photographer set up with tripod and we had a little chat it was still dark and the clouds were moving steadily overhead. Refreshments can be had at the villages of either Edale or Castleton, both a few minutes drive away.Sunrise was at 08:20am but I couldn’t sleep and was up from 4am!! I left the house at 6am and took a slow drive arriving at Mam Tor for 7:20am. After you have enjoyed the views, the walk continues down the great ridge to Hollins Cross before returning back along the Mam Tor Circular Walk Path but travelling further south on the final leg of the walk. The first part of the path is on a stone surface and when you arrive at the top of Mam Tor you will have some of the most amazing views which will stretch from the Edale Valley to Kinder Scout and the Derwent Moor. This walk is identical to the Mam Tar Walk 1 but is slightly longer. Refreshments can be had at the villages of either Edale or Castleton, both a few minutes drive away. It will then be a short downhill walk to your car. There’s a long gentle climb firstly up to Hollins Cross and then on up to Mam Tor where your your reward is magnificent views. After a short easy climb from the car park, the route will take you downhill through some lovely open countryside with wonderful views. Mam Tor walk 2Īgain, this walk takes you up to Mam Tor, one of the best known hills in Derbyshire but the approach is different to our other two Mam Tor walks. If you want to enjoy the views from the top of Mam Tor without doing the whole walk you can just do a there and back which would give you a climb of just under 100 metres and would be a walk of around 1 km. However, it is well worth the effort and will reward you with some of the most dramatic views around! After you have enjoyed the views the walk continues on the Mam Tor Circular Walk down the great ridge to Hollins Cross with views all the way, before returning back to the car park on the old Castleton Road. This is the shortest of our three circular walks to Mam Tor, and whilst short it does involve a couple of climbs. This iconic walk starts at the National Trust Mam Nick Car Park and takes you to Mam Tor, one of the best known hills in Derbyshire.
