Up for a challenge? Why not take on a Pink Ribbon Walk and soak up the sights on this ramble-ready route.
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.
Experience the Peak District's beauty as you travel along this breath-taking route. Enjoy magnificent landscapes, fresh air, and connect with nature while you explore on foot. This is your chance to be part of an amazing community, all walking for one reason. To show support and raise money for people affected by breast cancer.
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.
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.
2025 marks 20 years since the first Pink Ribbon Walk took place. Will you join this milestone year?
This event is part of Pink Ribbon Walk | Chatsworth House and the Peak District.
The walk is estimated to take between 2.5 and 4 hours.
The walk is estimated to take between 5 and 8 hours.
The Pink Ribbon Walks are open to anyone over the age of 13. People aged 13-17 need to have an adult register them on their behalf. Children can also come on the day to cheer on their family members along the route and/or support them on site.
Routes are designed to be challenging but achievable with a training programme suited to your ability.
Each team member will need to be registered to the event, so one person can register the entire group or everyone can register individually. You can then create a JustGiving page for your team to help with that all-important fundraising. Why not give your team a name so that everyone knows who you are.
It doesn’t matter if you’re an experienced walker or have never done anything like this before as long as you put in the training. There is plenty of time to train and training tips are included in your digital event pack, which you will receive when you sign up. You’ll be supported every step of the way by the team at Breast Cancer Now.
‘Cheer Points’ will be positioned at various points along the routes and will be accessible to friends and family who wish to offer support, so do invite them to come along.
Dogs must be on a lead at all times.
The route may be accessible for wheelchair users but this can be weather dependent. Please get in touch for details.
As there are some less accessible sections, pushchairs cannot be allowed on the route. Children under 13 are more than welcome to come and cheer you on at our cheer points and at the finish line.

Water refill points will be available for all participants at the Snack Stations at regular intervals along the route, along with some fruit and snacks to keep your energy up. You are advised to carry some water and your lunch with you in your day pack. To help reduce plastic waste, there won’t be bottled water provided at the event. So, make sure to remember to bring your own bottle to refill.
A celebratory meal will be provided for you when you cross the finish line. There will be vegetarian and gluten free options available to those who have requested them on their registration form.
Your T-shirt, event guide and pink ribbon will be sent to you in your event pack. Your walker number will arrive separately. This will arrive up to 2 weeks before your Pink Ribbon Walk. If for some reason your pack doesn’t arrive in time please don’t worry – you can get a T-shirt and walking number on the day and you can definitely still take part in the event.

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!
