We all love the great outdoors, but sometimes actually getting out there can be difficult. Perhaps you have limited mobility and find the logistics of experiencing the wider landscape challenging, or maybe the Coronavirus crisis means you don\u2019t feel comfortable travelling. Perhaps you don\u2019t deal well with the cold, or maybe that dream location \u2013 and the time and money it takes to get there \u2013 feels just out of reach.<\/p>\n

A quirk of geology has produced a strand of sharp limestone hills that erupt like a string of vertiginous miniature mountains from the hay meadows and soft pastures of the higher Dove Valley, near Buxton.<\/p>\n

The Dragon\u2019s Back range are often cited as the only true peaks in the Peak District; a line of pinnacles said to resemble the \u2018plates\u2019 along the spine of a stegosaurus dinosaur.<\/p>\n
