Event overview

Up for a challenge? Why not take on a Pink Ribbon Walk and soak up the sights of the picture-perfect Peak District.

Whether you're a newbie walker or a seasoned hiker, the Pink Ribbon Walks are for you. And you can walk your way - whether that's in a group, or on your own.

Maybe you’ll walk for a loved one. Maybe you’ll walk for yourself. Or maybe you’ll walk for the 55,000 people who are diagnosed with breast cancer every year in the UK. Whoever you walk for, you’ll be helping to transform the future of breast cancer, one step at a time. So will you join in?

Situated on the eastern side of the Peak District National Park, you're in prime position to make a weekend of it and spend some time exploring the picturesque valleys and pretty villages of the Peak District. Head to the nearby town of Bakewell to sample the original Bakewell Pudding to replenish some of those spent calories (it's very different to the supermarket version!).

I had an amazing day and thoroughly enjoyed myself. It was fantastic, emotional and rewarding. Great to walk with friends and raise funds for such a great cause.

Beautiful route with friendly volunteers at every point along the way. Fantastic snack stops and post walk meal. Loved the whole experience.

My Pink Ribbon Walk experience was amazing. The route was great, the staff and volunteers were fantastically supportive and inspirational, and the day is one that I will never forget - knowing that I was helping others, albeit in a small way, and having a wonderful day at the same time was incredible.

The route was a delight, it was so well organised and took us through the most beautiful countryside. There were places to rest along the way with refreshments, and I definitely benefited from the massage at the end. I have to mention the many volunteers, who looked after us with their smiles and words of encouragement!
