Camping
There are many more campsites than these
two popular ones here.
Stanage - North Lees Camp Site
Birley Lane, Hathersage (p.130).
Tel: 01433 650838
The most popular climbers' campsite in the
area - booking will be needed at busy times.
Baslow - Eric Byne Memorial Campsite
Below Birchen Edge, off the A619 (p.477).
This is a rudimentary site (no vehicles
allowed) but it is in a central (and very quiet)
location.
There are many other campsites scattered
throughout the area, from small and basic to
very plush -

Pubs
Pubs are an integral part of the climbing
experience for many. The Peak District is
blessed with many fine hostelries which
make great locations for an après-climb
pint where you can discuss the highs
and lows of your day. A few are listed
below as recommended by readers of the
UKClimbing.com
forums.

members of the local community. A good
variety of beers, and excellent food.
