What to do and see in Peak District National Park, England: The Best Gear Rentals

April 29, 2022 Moriah Teneyck

When it comes to outdoor activities, the Peak District National Park is the whole package. Located in the north of England, the park offers everything from horse riding to rock climbing, windsurfing to paragliding, plus walking trails galore. One trail, Derwent Valley Heritage Way, allows you to take in the area’s open landscape while also showcasing its industrial roots. Discovering hidden underground formations at such spots as Titan Cave (the highest natural cavern in the U.K.) is another popular pastime. Best of all, there are camp- and RV sites throughout so guests can settle into these surroundings.

I hired an ebike from James as my bike was stolen and I enjoyed so much I bought one. We ride regularly in the Peak District and iit was wonderful getting up hills without having to stop to get my breath and amazing fun back down. James was really helpful, making sure the bikes were set up for me and giving advice. Great customer service and quality bikes, I can recommend the Bike Garage for hire and sales
