Where is the best wild camping spot in the Peak District?

Wild camping is not officially permitted in the Peak District, as most of the land is privately owned or part of a national park. However, some people choose to discreetly camp in remote areas, following the "Leave No Trace" principles and respecting the environment. One such popular location is the Kinder Scout plateau. Remember that wild camping is done at your own risk and it's essential to be respectful of the land and its rules.

Hipcamp has the perfect pitch to match your camping style.
