Edale Skyline Hike

Conquer the Wild Edale Skyline Hike

This challenging 20 mile hike will explore the glorious Edale Skyline .

This is a looped route which will begin in Hope. You will visit Win Hill, Edale Moor, Kinder Scout, Mam Tor, Lose Hill/Ward's Piece and many other peaks with glorious views for miles - all of which make for an amazing adventure and awesome photo opportunities! 

Led by a qualified Mountain Leader, Hill and Moorland team, with a wealth of experience and expertise.

Discover and explore new places whilst completing a challenging route with the camaraderie of other like-minded people around you – there should be no desire to ‘beat’ anyone or break any records.

You should be prepared for a full day, with expected duration from around 8-10 hours. As this is a supportive, group event accommodating a range of abilities, please consider the latest time advertised and avoid making plans after the event.

Leave the planning and navigation to us and just enjoy venturing out into the open enjoying the views and company.
