Famous for its vast exposed moorlands, waves of plateauing gritstone,
feather bed bogs covered in cotton grass, and heather moors. Below the
moorland are oak-birch woods and steep valleys covered in interlocking
blocks of coniferous plantation - a picturesque place of tranquillity.
Our
OS Explorer maps are perfect for day-tripping, extensive hikes, and
