Peak District..White to Dark Peak walk & wildcamp.

In 2012, TrailZilla teamed up with Country Walking Magazine to create a brand-new White to Dark Long Distance Path - Peak District National Park walk, celebrating the very best of the Peak District. Celebrating the 25th birthday of Britain’s best-selling walking magazine,the White to Dark Way is a two /three-day walk from the White Peak to the Dark Peak. It aims to be the first major walking trail dedicated to linking the Peak District’s two 'halves', across terrain ranging from meadows, woods and farmland to wild moorland and gritstone edges, going from Bakewell to Hope. The route includes Monsal Head, Cressbrook Dale, Litton, Eyam, Stanage Edge and Win Hill.

My aim was to do the walk over two day's with an overnight wildcamp roughly half way along the route.
Day one i set off from Bakewell & arrived at sir william hill where i pitched for the night.13.5 mile in 4 hour 51 mins,2,954 ft total ascent at that point.

Day two after packing up i set off from sir william hill & arrived in hope 15.9 mile,5 hour 54 mins,3,191 ft total ascent later to finish the route.

In total over two days i walked 29.3 mile in 10 hour 45 mins walking time & a total 6,145 ft of ascent.

A stunning route showcasing the natural buety of two very different landscapes,the white peak easy walking vast open green & limestone landscape.The dark peak harder walking valleys & millstone edges but equally as stunning with the views all around.
A route i can highly recommend.
