This gallery displays landscape countryside photos taken within the Peak District of England.

The Peak District is located in central and northern England, covering much of north Derbyshire, and parts of Staffordshire, Cheshire, Greater Manchester, and also South and West Yorkshire. The Peak District is conventionally split into two main areas, which are, the Dark Peak in the north, and the White Peak in the south. Within this area is The Peak District National Park. It covers most, but not all of this vast area.

The Peak District National Park, which covers 555 square miles, was designated a national park in 1951 and was the first national park in the United Kingdom. The areas of the national park within Staffordshire, are usually referred to as the Staffordshire Moorlands or the Staffordshire Peak District. The only town directly within the national park is Bakewell, there are however many villages and hamlets, and there are other towns just outside of the national park.

The Peak District National Park is claimed to be the second most visited national park in the world. Much of the land is open to the public and is criss crossed with public footpaths, bridleways and trails. There are also the remains of many ancient packhorse routes and packhorse bridges. Visitor activities include, walking, rambling, climbing, orienteering, canoeing, cycling, mountain biking, potholing, hang gliding and paragliding.

All the fine art photos in this gallery have been taken within the wider area of the Peak District, but most are from the actual Peak District National Park. Photos are available in various sizes and finishes, including photo, canvas, acrylic, metal and poster prints and greeting cards. More details are shown below.
