Logo for Country Tracks - Series 1 - Peak District Tradition

Ben Fogle goes on another rural journey, this time in the Peak District. Starting at the Heights of Abraham, Ben travels first by bike and then by horse. He finds out about the local traditions, discovers DH Lawrence's connection to the area, and has a go at cooking fish 17th century style. Then for two serious challenges. He climbs a notorious rock face on the Roaches, and finishes his journey paragliding off the slopes of Shining Tor. Along the way Ben looks back on the best of the BBC's rural programmes from this spectacular upland.
