How to get in Peak District
There are several main roads crossing the Peak District, but even these (let alone the myriad smaller roads) can get very crowded on fine-weather weekends.
The main train stations are:
Buxton (from Manchester Piccadilly)
Chinley, Edale, Hope, Hathersage, and Grindleford (from Manchester Piccadilly and Sheffield)
Glossop (from Manchester Piccadilly)
Matlock (from Derby).
There are coach (long-distance bus) services to the main towns (Buxton, Bakewell, Matlock).
The bus services are better than most rural areas of England (there tend to be MORE buses on Sunday). The towns and bigger villages have a good daytime service from the nearest big towns and cities, and some buses to most of their nearest villages.
