Peak Pilgrimage Day 3, 14.5 Miles, Wet Socks & Bakewell Pudding!

Peak Pilgrimage Day 3 — we’ve made it to the final stretch! 14.5 miles from Lathkil Hotel to Eyam… featuring, soggy socks, zero blisters, and the all-important Bakewell Pudding stop (priorities firmly in check 🍰). This is the most meaningful day of the whole walk, heading into Eyam — the famous Plague Village. Stunning scenery, historical villages, and yes… more rain, because the Peak District loves to test us. Total Pilgrimage Distance: 37+ miles Legs: tired Spirits: still good Stamp book: fully earned ✔️ If you’re planning the Peak Pilgrimage yourself, walking the Peak District or just love a good British adventure, come along for the final day with The Wandering Hobbits.
