Download Scrambles in the Dark Peak Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This guide describes 41 scrambles in the Dark Peak and Roaches areas of the Peak District, most of which can be done all year round. The selection of routes are graded 1 to 3, offering a range of scrambles to suit all abilities. Easy routes are suitable for adventurous walkers with good fitness and navigation skills, while harder routes require some climbing experience. Both classic and lesser known routes are featured, taking in areas such as Kinder Scout, the Wilderness Gullies, Bleaklow, Chew Valley and Crowden. Route description, together with information on approach, link routes, variants and extensions, is accompanied by extracts of 1:25,000 OS mapping. Also included is practical information regarding safety, equipment, access and conservation. The UK's first designated national park, the Peak District has long been famed for its walking and climbing opportunities. Perhaps lesser known are the routes that lies somewhere in between - the 'hand's on' ascents that offer the thrill of an adventurous line without venturing on to the climber's crags. This guide showcases some of the best routes in the Dark Peak, perfect for those looking for a change from the well-trodden paths that lead to the moorland tops.

Extremely detailed guide books are available for walking and rock climbing in the Lake District, so detailed that it appears nothing has been overlooked and no inviolate places remain for the adventurer. Yet this is not quite the case. There is a very interesting area which is not really rock climbing yet involves the use of the hands on rock and is certainly far removed from normal walking. Scrambling is what this book is about. Scrambling as a sport is not new. The ascent of easy rocks where hands may be used is naturally satisfying and has been enjoyed by mountaineers since the sport began. The majority of Alpine peaks involve some scrambling in their ascent by their normal routes. The early rock climbers created routes which involved rope scrambling, without the numerous aids to safety which climbers use today. Many of the Lake District scrambles have been known since Victorian times, and many have been used at odd times by generations of climbers. In recent years high-standard rock climbing has become so specialized that it is a sport far removed from the rock climbing of even twenty or thirty years ago. Extremes, but it is difficult to know just where to draw the line to know where scrambling becomes rock climbing. I consider scrambling to be an ascent of rock where the hands are necessary for progress, ascending rock that is not usually difficult or steep enough to warrant the term 'rock climbing'. Many of the routes are in exciting places, often well removed from the beaten path. You can go into a popular area and, by combining several scrambles, hardly touch a path and rarely see other people at close quarters. This is a way of getting back to a wilder Lakeland; to enjoy the freedom of rough mountain country. A good long scramble with interesting route finding, uncluttered with the paraphernalia of modern rock climbing, gives a very satisfying way.
