Edale
At Edale, an extremely popular hiking center, you're truly in the Peak District wilds. This sleepy, straggling village, in the shadow of Mam Tor and Lose Hill and the moorlands of the high plateau known as Kinder Scout (2,088 feet), lies among some of the most breathtaking scenery in Derbyshire. England has little wilder scenery than Kinder Scout, with its ragged edges of grit stone and its interminable leagues of heather and peat.
