The Alport Castles are a unique landslip and is said to be the largest landslip in the UK produced by shifting land. The largest "The Tower" resembles a motte and bailey castle - hence the name!
Following the travels of a 2011 Brazilian Volkswagen Type 2 camper van around the UK. Zoom in/out on the map to see where we have visited. Click on the marker to find the link direct to that page. I will be adding more and more of my locations from the last few years over the coming weeks.

Peak District Alport Castles walk
An 8 mile hike in the "high peak" area of the Peak District. This walk takes in pretty much everything, starting at the Ladyblower reservoir before climbing to open moorland and taking in the vast Alport castle landslip landscapes, Alport valley and woodlands.
