Peak District Holidays
PEAK DISTRICT HOLIDAYS
Plenty of fun, fresh air and a bit of sunshine are what most people wish for on their holiday. A Peak District Holiday can guarantee fun and fresh air, and sometimes gets it right with the sunshine!
Surrounded by fabulous National Park countryside, your Peak District Holiday could be packed with outdoor activities. There are hundreds of miles of tracks and trails and thousands of miles of footpaths to choose from! With gritstone boulders and rocky escarpments running down the eastern flank, your Peak District Holiday might even include rock climbing, bouldering or abseiling. Horse riding gives you an elevated view of the surroundings, but if you want something higher then why not include a hot air balloon ride into your Peak District Holiday agenda.
Devoid of a coastline, the Peak District is surprisingly not lacking in water sports, making the most of its reservoirs and rivers. Carsington Water offers a wide range of sailing and water borne activities, or you may wish to relax with some fishing or simply hide in a ‘hide’ and watch the wild birds on your Peak District Holiday.
Thrill seekers on Peak District Holidays can scream with excitement at Alton Towers or Gullivers Kingdom, dangle from ropes in the woods at Go Ape or descend into underground caverns and caves.
For enthusiasts of transport on a Peak District Holiday, Peak Rail, The Red House Carriage Museum and Crich Tramway Museum display collections that will take you back in time as well as a journey down the line.
You may prefer a cultural Peak District Holiday with visits to museums, galleries, exhibitions and shows, or to age old practices, customs and traditions such as well dressings, fetes, carnivals and village shows.
A Peak District Holiday is a chance to explore, to experience, to visit places and to have fun so that you arrive back home with memories to treasure and a desire to return.
