The ARUK Explorer Hike takes place in the beautiful Peak District, exclusively for Alzheimer’s Research UK supporters. Take on the walk alone, with friends, or meet people on the day who share a connection to dementia.
Choose from two routes through the Peaks: a challenging 26-mile hike or a shorter 8-mile walk. Whichever route you pick, you’ll be surrounded by stunning natural views while you raise awareness and vital funds.
Your hike will begin at Bakewell, with a coach to take you to the starting point. Both routes will finish at Carsington Water, where you’ll be rewarded with your medal, snacks, and refreshments. Along the route there will be fully-stocked pitstops where you can stop to chat to volunteers and other walkers, or just take a well-earned break!
Marathon distance or shorter route option through the rolling dales of the Peak District.
Plenty of easy-to-follow traffic-free trails with breathtaking viewpoints from the many viaducts.
Make incredible memories with like-minded supporters of Alzheimer's Research UK.
