5A Guide to Britain's oldest national park...  Mar 21, 2008 By D. S. Thurlow
This 2007 version of the AA Leisure Guide to the Peak District is a terrific resource for planning and enjoying a vacation in Britain's oldest and still very impressive national park.

Located south and east of Manchester in the center of England, the Peak District features a beautiful collection of landscapes, including moderate hills, long ridgelines, cliffs, remote moors, and pretty river valleys. If the scale of the hills here is less than, say, the Cairngorms in Scotland, they are likely to be more user-friendly to the average walking-fit tourist. The Peak District is also home to several old resort towns, including Buxton and Matlock, and to a collection of impressive private homes open to visitors, including Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall.

The guide covers the Peak District in five geographic sections: The Dark Peak, the White Peak, Buxton and the Western Moors, the Southern Dales, and the Derwent Valley and Eastern Moors. The format notes the essential sights for each section and their location on a map graphic, provides directions for driving tours, and details at least one extended walk and one cycling tour per section. General information on the Peak District, such as transportation considerations and the location of pubs and tea rooms, is also included. An impressive selection of color photographs provides a good sense of the landscapes and of the more popular attractions. A couple of large-scale maps in the back permit navigation into and through the Peak District from the nearest big cities.

This updated guide is very highly recommended as a planning and touring resource for those intended to visit the Peak District.
