There are no further shops or additional toilet facilities on this walk.
There are also several pubs for that after walk drink. There are also plenty of other little shops and cafes in Castleton that you can treat yourself to goodies either before or after the walk. You can also pick up breakfast (if you’re late started as the cafe doesn’t open until 10 am) and snacks for your hike. There are public toilets available next to Castleton Visitor Centre.

Walk highlights: Castleton village, Lose Hill summit, walking along the Great Ridge and summiting Mam Tor and views of the Hope Valley Let me know in the comments if you’ve done this walk and what you think!
Here you will find details on how to get to the start of the walk from Castleton, route information, GPX file, facilities on the walk, plus a detailed step by step guide of the walk. Now if that’s not enough reasons to do this walk then I don’t know what is! Then looking down you can see the beautiful village of Castleton and on the other side, you’ll see the lovely village of Edale. This route will take you from Castleton up to Lose Hill summit then along the Great Ridge, over Back Tor, then on to Hollins Cross and finally Mam Tor.Īs you walk along the ridge you can see the other Peak District hills in the area, including the highest point Kinder Scout, then all the way to Win Hill, another must-do route. It’s also a very popular walk but when you’re walking along the ridge with the valleys either side, you’ll see why.
Walking along the Great Ridge from Lose Hill to Mam Tor is one of my favourite walks in the Peak District.
