    Hiking

    Axe Edge Moor is a major area of open moorland not far southwest of Buxton. At 1,808 feet (551 m) high, it is not the biggest hill on the block, but it has a nice trig pointed summit and nice expansive views out over the surrounding hills. The Dane Valley Way trail passes on its lower western flank.
