School Trips to Peak District

Why visit the Peak District?

Spectacular landscapes

The Peak District is a largely upland area at the southern tip of the Pennines. The Peak District is divided into two distinct areas – the Dark Peak, which is known for its moorland and gritstone edges, and the White Peak, a limestone area of valleys and gorges.

In 1951, the Peak District National Park became the first national park in the UK. A walker’s paradise, the park attracts millions of visitors each year, who come to the region to explore its moorland, valleys and gorges.
