A circular walking holiday through the magnificent Peak District National Park.
From £500 per person
From the Georgian streets of the old spa-town of Buxton, the White Peak Way dips through seven distinct dales of the Peak District National Park. It clambers along ridges and traverses gritstone edges, wanders the green grounds of Chatsworth House, follows riverbanks through tranquil valleys, and even explores the rock chambers, tunnels and steps carved by an eccentric Victorian vicar.
Historic villages such as Bakewell and Youlgreave also add to the character of the area, with their distinctive pastries and traditions, giving this walk a well-rounded, charming atmosphere throughout. Book a walking holiday on the White Peak Way and immerse yourself in this beautiful region.
We offer multiple holiday options along this trail. If you wish to experience the entire trail, simply select the first option from the list below.
From £765 per person

“We had a great week. The route is lovely, challenging in places, a breeze in others, with stunning scenery and stays in fab pubs in fab villages. And as a bonus, the weather was really good too. Loved the peaks and the views! Recommend the holiday to others? Absolutely! I have been already! Your staff have been really good at finding routes we haven't yet done that fit our slightly 'moon on a stick' requirements!”Mrs Bathe, UK
“The people in the Peak District - at the pubs, inns, B&Bs, taxi services - were all exceptionally nice and helpful.”Mrs Sampson, USA
“It was very well organised (thank you). I enjoyed the variety of the walk. I felt that there was a good mixture of walking in the dales and gorges and walking on the hills. The towns and villages were picturesque but not overly quaint. The people were friendly.”Mr Bakes, UK
“Very well organised and Richard at Contours took on board our fitness level and customised a route for us. Accommodation was very good. Luggage collected and delivered by Pac-Man Travel with no problem which certainly took away any stress. It was great having the holiday organised and accommodation booked for us. We are planning to do a walking holiday every year now with Contours.”Ms Evans, UK
“It was a good walk with nice scenery and a good level of challenge.”Mr Stallings, USA

“Wonderful landscape.”Mrs Krause, Germany
