Enjoy this stunning circular walking route through the Peak District hills via Cave Dale Mam Tor and the Great Ridge with a relaxed group of likeminded people, including our professional counsellors and coaches. We are here to support your mental fitness - in a positive and friendly way, creating a safe, non-judgemental space where you can talk, reflect, or simply enjoy the restorative power of being outdoors.
You can expect to come away from the day with a huge sense of achievement and new friends, feeling relaxed and revitalised - with helpful guidance and tools for going forward in day to day life. Whether you're joining us to clear your head, build confidence, or simply reconnect with nature, this walk offers the time and space to breathe, reset, and feel supported.
This walk is in partnership with YHA's Festival of Walking - view other social walks.
