This is part one of three. Steph and I started from the quaint church in Ilam, Staffordshire. Following the gentle River Dove up to Milldale where we stopped for lunch. Later climbed up to Alstonefield and then back down into Wolfscote Dale towards Hartington. Hartington is the official finishing point for the first section of this walk, however, we couldn't get into the campsite at Hartington YHA and continued to the next village of Biggin, where we stayed for one night at the Waterloo Inn, very cheap and served hot meals. We collected stamps and stickers from all the churches we passed.
My friend Steph is also a content creator, please consider visiting her channel and subbing. Thank you.

Would you be interested in completing this pilgrimage or another one similar? If so, let me know, what appeals to you about pilgrimages or trails in the Peak District? Thanks.
I like nature beautiful
Yes, thanks 🤩
I love your amazing enthusiasm, Rachel. (And the scenery is wonderful) xx
Thanks Sue. I love being out in the hills and green pastures. 😀
Delightful..a touch of bright Summer here in bleakest mid Winter.
Yes I can’t wait for the warmer weather to be back. Thanks ☺️
Great video, really shows off the stunning countryside in all its glory, I loved this trail 😃
Hi ya, this was good adventure. Very enjoyable xx
Lovely, I'm local and did not know about the paintings in Hartington Church.
St Giles is a lovely church, bigger than I expected it to be. Thank you for watching 👀 ☺️
Ey up me duck.
Enjoyed watching as always.
I remember the last time I was at the stepping stones, you're not wrong about the rock being slippy. Came out of one of the caves and slipped over, lol.
So glad to see Night Cat have finally gotten rid of their Hello Kitty emblem, lol
Anyroad, looking forward to the next installment, ay a good'un👍🙂
Yes, Night Cat have been good to me. The tent worked well, for what I needed. I did notice the logo change, it doesn’t look too childish now. Thanks Sog xx
Such lovely ambience. The visuals are beautiful, and the sounds of nature are so relaxing! Simply fantastic cinematography my friend!
Thank you 🤩
Happy holidays ❤
Same to you! Have a good’en 😍

Hello 👋. Nice video 😀💚
Thank you ☺️
Great first day on the trail 😊 it’s nice that you can collect the stamps as you go. Lovely seeing old churches.
Thanks for watching Yasmin. I really enjoyed having the little guidebook double up as a passport. We had lovely weather on day one, which made life a little easier. x
Loving your Pilgrimage walks Rachel! 😃 Great start in the lovely Ilam. Glad you managed to enjoy a shandy in Hartington after other places being closed. Biggin's a nice place to stay, love the Waterloo Inn. Look forward to your journey to Bakewell 😀👍
Hi Patrick, thanks for stopping by. I hope you are well. I really enjoyed this section. I’ve done most of this area before via other routes. Part two includes the Tissington trail, Monyash, Lathkilldale and Over Haddon. X
Top effort Rachel.
Some beautiful countryside and stunning churches. You guys looked like you had an amazing time.
Have a wonderful Christmas 🎉
We did thank you. Steph and I did several mini-trails over the summer and this was a good one. A little easier on the legs than the Herriot Way and Hope Pilgrimage. Thanks ☺️
Our fav places . But not doing those long walks...just pottering about and riding motorcycles and driving.. so thanks for showing us places we can't go now . Peak district our fav .tnx x
It’s a beautiful area. I’m so sorry to hear you can’t go. I appreciate CZcams only gives a glimpse but glad it’s helped connect with the place.
Brilliant video, I really enjoyed it and just subscribed :)
Hi, thanks for watching and subbing. 😋
Excellent vlog on my home patch. Biggin lad born and bread. Now live in Parsley Hay. Have just recently done the Peak Pilgrimage but with a difference. Made circular walks of them. Will now sit and watch pt2. 👌
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching. I really liked this trail and would do it again ☺️
What a superb starting point, I love those old traditional churches. Looked a nice trail to follow with plenty of interest too, with the stepping stones, Dovedale Holes and a great (sock gate apart) stop off at Milldale too. I liked the sound of self service refreshments at St Peters mind, which was just as well with The George being closed. After that steep climb I hope you did actually manage to get your half of shandy 😁and another really nice church but brilliant to see your half magically turned into a full pint! At least the rain kept off till you got your tents pitched up, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, the pilgrimage started well. We had perfect weather which was a blessing. There was a lot to see and take in too. Thanks for watching. X
Well this is a fabulous ‘Rock up and Ramble’ Rachel what an adventure and we remember you doing something similar before! Shame a lot of places are closed on a Monday! Love your energy and looking forward to the next part! Great campsite and wigwam loved the rain on the tent😂👍 Merry Christmas 🎄❤️
Hi there, the Peak Pilgrimage was created by the same people who created Hope Pilgrimage. This one is a bit longer by about five miles, and is mostly low level stuff. It was a really enjoyable three days. Thanks for tuning in. x
I hope you treated yourself to a nice oatcake. Fine food for the days walk.
I think Steph may have been on the Oatcakes. 😀
Have you done this pilgrimage a second time, or is this a continuation? I still really enjoyed it, Rachel. Thanks for sharing, and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Here's to lots more Rambling in 2024.
Hi Chris, it’s the first time I’ve done this pilgrimage, the Peak Pilgrimage and Hope Pilgrimage are totally different routes from each other but both finish in Eyam.
I have done sections of this before such as Dovedale to Milldale 😊 and up to the top of Thorp Cloud.
@ramblingracheluk wow, I hadn't realised there were two. That has certainly peaked my interest. One for future. Thank you.
Great video, really enjoyed it!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks ☺️
Great little video. New sub here 👋🏻 😊🫶🏻
Thanks for subbing!
Lovely route Rachel! We've been in The Waterloo a few times, but always stayed at a campervan only site just up the hill. Was the pub's site good? It looked decent enough!
Even though I ate a camp meal, we had a second dinner in the pub which was nice. It felt like an old fashioned pub, not one of these new trendy ones. It had character. X
Hi Rachel, looks like you had another great hike, I've not been subscribed long so catching up on a lot of your other videos.
I bought the exact same tent, actually I bought a Lanshan 1 & a Langshan 2 but from a different supplier (collinsoutdoors) I know they're all made in China and when I got mine the instructions said I had to seam seal them before using them, they did come with a tube of seam sealer and I did seal them but I'm just curios if you seam sealed yours and if you didn't did it leak.
Hi, funny you should mention the seam sealing, I’ve done it today. Draped the tent over a few chairs and sealed the guy out points only. It did rain the last time I used it and it didn’t leak. So far, it’s turning out to be a good little tent for its price range. I’m hoping to get a camp in before the years out. My friend Steph has a Lanshan 1, not much difference at all apart from the branding.
@@ramblingracheltrailtales Same here, I usually go Christmas eve for 2 nights and come back Boxing day, I just wonder round the Peak District but not sure what the weathers going to be like this year, apparently 9 inch of snow as been mentioned and if does come and gets that deep it'll put a spanner in the works as the roads won't be accessible (about 50 miles for me) and the trains won't be running, anyway have a good Christmas, atb.
summertime in the Peak district...is there anything nicer?
Yes, this was from August. It’s taken me a while to find time to edit it. 😀
