πŸŒ„ Walk the Iconic Dragon’s Back Ridge! πŸŒ„
18 April 2026 | Peak District | Chrome Hill & Parkhouse Hill
πŸ’š Join us for an unforgettable adventure along one of the Peak District’s most striking landscapes.
The dramatic limestone ridges of Chrome Hill and Parkhouse Hillβ€”known as the Dragon’s Backβ€”offer breathtaking views, fascinating geology, and a sense of wild beauty. At Blackdog Outdoors, we believe time in nature is a powerful tool for mental health and wellbeing. This event is all about slowing down, connecting with others, and rediscovering the joy of the outdoors in a safe, supportive environment.
