On Peak Rock
Carl Dawson

Here are 1500 of the best climbs in the Peak District, taken from 100 cliffs - distant outcrops on the Kinder, Chew and Bleaklow plateaus to the north, more accessible edges on the flanking moorland ridges, and the limestone cliffs of the central river valleys.

The cliffs have been grouped to allow a suitable choice of venue prompted by weather, difficulty, and other factors.

Areas covered:-- There are too many cliffs and crags covered by this guide to list here, but be assured; there is climbing in plenty for all.

StanageStanage
Edited by David Simmonite

Stanage has everything; slabs, walls, cracks, chimneys, gullies, overhangs and buttresses - from the easiest to the nearly impossible. Any climber who could claim to have done everything on Stanage would be accomplished indeed.

This is the first time in the many guidebooks which have covered the rock climbs on Stanage that the Edge has has a guide to itself.

This is an obvious consequence of the increasing number of climbs on this 5 kilometre-long gritstone rampart and may portend the eventual working out of its store of, as yet undiscovered secrets.

Stanage Edge is a crag of major international importance. It is probably the world's busiest crag with a quality of rock and routes that is difficult to match. Climbing will occur on almost every day of the year and has done so for over a century. Such is the appeal of Stanage
