Mam Tor from Castleton | Peak District | England | 4K

At a height of 517 meters (1,696 ft), Mam Tor is one of the most well-known hills in the Derbyshire, Peak District. Kinder Scout gets a shoutout for being the highest point but the Mam Tor walk is the one that’s been hiked by more people. (Voted the 10th best walk by the public in the top 100 UK walks). Mam Tor is known as the ‘Mother Hill’, the name came from the number of landslides in the area resulting in lots of new mini hills. And the history doesn’t stop there as there’s evidence that dates back to the Iron Age, where Mam Tor was an Iron Age hill fort! I did the walk from Castleton village on a very hot September day. It was 30 degrees which is very unusual for England this time of year. https://buymeacoffee.com/rossangelluk
