    Hiking

    The Roaches in the Peak District are a dramatic gritstone ridge, attracting hikers and climbers with their rugged beauty. These rocky outcrops offer stunning views and challenging terrain, making them a popular destination.
    It's a relatively easy climb to the top. It's also not too far from Lud's Church either. Check out the ice cream van on Roach Road near the squeeze stile wall if you fancy a hot beverage.
