After a windy and rainy night in the tent, my mate Andy and I packed up our gear to tackle the rest of the Edale Skyline. We had an adventurous day navigating fascinating geological formations, discovering some abandoned off-road vehicles on the trail, and finally taking in the stunning views at Mam Tor. It was a phenomenal two-day hike in the Peak District, and I've put the route in the description below if you want to download it and give it a go yourself!
