Lake District - Angle Tarn and Rest Dodd

England's largest National Park is not only famous for its lakes but also for its forests and mountains. This walk is one of our favorites covering 6.5 miles and about 1800 feet of elevation. It's a moderate walk with a steady climb up to Angle Tarn from Hartsop via Boredale Hause followed by a stroll along a ridge with great views over to Helvellyn then up to Rest Dodd dropping down to Hayeswater. Click here for the route information. 

Peak District - Old Dam & Sparrowpit from Mam Tor

This is a Peak District walk that includes some slightly less walked areas of the National Park. 

The Park includes the Dark Peak, where moorland is found and the geology gritstone, and the White Peak, a limestone area with valleys and gorges. Mother Hill, also called, Mam Tor, sits on the edge of the Dark Peak and the White Peak which means you can enjoy some fantastic views of the limestone sections of the National Park from there. This walk is slightly longer at about 9 miles and offers a great circular route to explore. Click here for the route information.
