Do I need walking shoes for Peak District?

A Taste of the Peak District Response Walking or running shoes are also perfect for walks where the terrain is easy, like forestry tracks and non-technical paths. For day long walks, or multi-day walks and backpacking, I don't think you can beat a good sturdy pair of boots.

What is the Hardest Walk in the Peak District? In our opinion, Kinder Scout is one of the hardest walking trails in Peak District due to the length, height gain and indistinct trail at points. However, it's rewarding with beautiful views from Kinder Plateau and Kinder Low and worth the effort!

If it's a paved nature trail, even a pair of city sneakers can handle it. If you expect to hike in cold, wet conditions, you might prefer the warmth and protection of a sturdy boot with a waterproof membrane, but you can find waterproof trail-running shoes as well.
