Sheep at the Black Hill summit - Black Hill Circular Walk from The Wandering Wildflower blog

Back in May the husband and I decided to have a day off together and hit the hills. He likes to go to high places so we headed out on a Black Hill circular walk, starting at the parking spot on Greenfield Road. It was also an opportunity to get started with the Peak District trig bagging challenge! This route is quite challenging in places, so isn't really suitable for small children and you need ...

Circular Walk from Marsden to Wessenden Head

August 28, 2021 CIRCULAR WALKS, MEDIUM WALKS 4-9 MILES, PEAK DISTRICT WALKS, PEAK DISTRICT WALKS WITH KIDS, YORKSHIRE WALKS

My obsession with heather continues... Today saw us venture into the Colne Valley to have a circular walk from Marsden to Wessenden Head Reservoir. Well, it's a kind of out-and-back walk but we went out on the high path and came back on the low, making it a circular walk. I've taken about a billion photos so I apologise in advance for the reservoir spam.   ... READ MORE »

Circular Walk Around Harden Moss in Holmfirth

August 28, 2021 CIRCULAR WALKS, HOLMFIRTH WALKS, MEDIUM WALKS 4-9 MILES, PEAK DISTRICT WALKS, PEAK DISTRICT WALKS WITH KIDS, YORKSHIRE WALKS

Earlier this week I snuck out of work early and headed up onto the tops with Hols and Mr R. Don't worry, my boss doesn't mind. I work for myself! We headed out on a circular walk around Harden Moss in Holmfirth, the home of the famous sheepdog trials. Sadly there were no sheepdogs on our walk today but we did see plenty of sheep!   ...

Walk to Eastergate Bridge

August 26, 2021 SHORT WALKS UNDER 3 MILES, YORKSHIRE WALKS

Eastergate Bridge is an historic packhorse bridge in Marsden. Not only is it a very photogenic bridge, it's a lovely walk and a great place for kids to have a paddle. It's one of the easier walks in Yorkshire on the blog - who doesn't love a nice easy walk with kids? I took Hols and a friend on a walk the other day and decided this would be the place as it's somewhere I've wanted to visit for a ... READ MORE »

Pendle Hill Walk with Kids

August 25, 2021 CIRCULAR WALKS, LANCASHIRE WALKS, MEDIUM WALKS 4-9 MILES

I've wanted to do the Pendle Hill walk ever since we camped in (relatively) nearby Rimington. Pendle Hill has become a bit of an obsession of mine as it's really enigmatic. It stands alone and can be seen for miles around, towering over the little villages that are dotted around it's base, but disappears totally in the mist! At 395m above sea level it's classed as a Marilyn and it's parent peak is ... READ MORE »

Bell tent glamping in Matfen, Northumberland at Dark Sky Glamping

Ever book a trip away on a whim? I love booking unplanned trips when I have a spare weekend! It doesn't happen very often (thanks, weddings!) but when it does I like to make the most of my free time. I happened to have a free weekend in May so searched for a glamping trip in Northumberland. I bloody love Northumberland, and would go there every weekend if I could. Not move there though - I'm ...

A few weeks ago I had a spare weekend and, rather than fester around at home, I decided to book for us to go away. I found Wild Cherry Camping online and thought it seemed the perfect spot for a camping trip. It was our first time eco camping in North Wales - here's how it went! ... READ MORE »

ABOUT ME

Y Garn with Kids - Y Garn via the Devil's Kitchen Walk in Ogwen Valley

Hello! I’m Jo! Welcome to The Wandering Wildflower, an outdoors lifestyle blog focusing on family walks in the Peak District, a place we love exploring. I also blog about our UK camping trips, UK day trips, walks around Yorkshire and more. When I’m not dragging my husband and 10 year old out on Peak District walks or up mountains, I can be found on my phone, planning my next Geocache walk (and seeing where the nearest pub is!). I love the hills but hate the heights, so trig bagging is – er- fun!

 

I hope this blog will give you some ideas of places to visit in the Peak District and inspire you and your family to head into the great outdoors. Thanks for stopping by!
