- Help to fight climate change by planting vital moss on the majestic moors
- Enjoy a guided-walk off the beaten track seeing unique flora and fauna
- Learn about the history and ecology of the UK’s first National Park
Do your bit to help combat climate change by heading off the beaten track and getting hands-on in the Peak District moors. On an exclusive guided walk, learn about the benefits of moors, or ‘peatlands’, and enjoy stunning scenery whilst looking for unique moorland animals, including mountain hares and curlews. Find out why these moors were labelled “the most polluted landscape in Europe” and how restoration work is helping to reverse their fortunes. Then help the restoration work, by planting vital carbon-storing sphagnum moss. In the UK, peatlands store more carbon than any other habitat, so we must look after them!
