Influencer Sam Culley explains in the below video the best way to experience a sunrise at Mam Tor: from where exactly to park as well as how to hike up it!


He explains it's about a 30 minute walk up steps to the trig point on the top, and ideally you want to arrive up there about 20 minutes before the sun comes up. Remember to check beforehand what time the sun will come up as well as the weather!

Remember - LeaveNoTrace!


As with anywhere outdoors, kindly keep these areas pristine and wild by taking all trash with you. The amount of complaints we have seen since the pandemic is crazy. It's really not that hard to take your rubbish with you!


Litter tends to spread, so if you see any and are able to pick it up and dispose of it outside the hidden gem, it will help keep the area tidy.
