OpenStreetMap is an opensource global crowd sourced map. OSNI (then Basemap Gallery / 4 squares icon, then 25K or 50K) OSI and OSNI produce paper 1:50K and some 1:25K maps. There are paper 1:25K maps for both Isle of Man and the Channel Islands Ordnance Survey (OS) mapping covers England, Wales and Scotland - not Northern Ireland or the Channel Islands.

This 517 m (1,696 ft) hill in the Peak District affords fabulous views over the surrounding area. When the path forks, take the lower route, past shakeholes, and follow the dry river valley into the dramatic Cavedale. There’s parking close to the summit of Mam Tor, so it’s easy to reach too. This part of the Peak District is all deep dales, high moorland, bleak melodrama and huge panoramas. About 300 yards after the track is joined by a farm track from the left, turn left on to the Limestone Way footpath. The drama of Mam Tor is so epic that this hike starts and ends there frankly, seeing it once just isn’t enough. In the distance can be seen quarry spoil heaps. We highly recommend signing up to Alltrails and downloading this map ahead of the walk so that you can navigate easily on the day.
The path ascends gently over the shoulder of a hill, then drops down gently to meet a track. MAM TOR WALK ROUTE MAP Below you’ll find an interactive route map of the Mam Tor, Hollins Cross, Castleton and Winnats Pass walk. As you descend, the route ahead is clearly visible, crossing the main road, following the field boundary past Windy Knoll, across another road, through a gate, and cutting diagonally across a field. If you are lucky, you will be entertained by hang gliders and para gliders being launched from the hilltop. This climbs gently, and curves round to the trigpoint at the summit of Mam Tor. Mam Tor is a place of ancient civilisation, with evidence of occupation from around 1200 BC. From here there are splendid views in both directions: Hope valley to the south, and Edale to the north.įrom Hollins Cross take the paved path leading west along the ridge. This is the end of the steepest uphill section of the walk.
Follow the track in the same direction - then cross a stile and follow the clear track, diagonally up the hillside to Hollins Cross, which is marked with a circular pillar. Walk between cottages, out of the village, passing the burial ground on your right. At the road junction, follow the main road round to the left, then continue ahead at the next corner, where the main road turns right. Leave the car park, heading left towards the centre of the village. Start: Public car park, Castleton (SK149830)Ĭastleton nestles in the Hope Valley, between the Peak District's gritstone moorlands and the limestone plateau - this walk provides a taste of each.
