Crowden Campsite

Crowden Campsite is a Camping and Caravanning Club site set in a remote corner of the northern Peak District National Park, roughly six miles northeast of Glossop.

Positioned at the end of a challenging stretch of the Pennine Way, it offers sweeping views of the Dark Peak moorland and sits close to the Woodhead and Torside reservoirs. Wildlife watchers may spot falcons, red kites, and eagles overhead.

The site has 45 grass and hardstanding pitches, most with electric hook-up, and is well suited to walkers, cyclists, and photographers.

The Longendale Trail, following the old Woodhead railway line past several reservoirs, starts nearby and is accessible to wheelchairs and pushchairs.

Crowden Brook runs through the surrounding landscape, and the Laddow Rocks above the valley make for a rewarding half-day hike directly from the campsite.
