Rhiane Fatinikun of Black Girls Hike puts Clare through her paces on a challenging but exhilarating ramble in the Peak District

Rhiane Fatinikun takes Clare on one of her favourite walks in the Peak District. Starting in Edale they take in Hollins Cross, Lose Hill and Mam Tor.  Rhiane set up Black Girls Hike to provide a safe space for black women to explore the countryside. It’s been such a success that there are now three branches: in the North West, the West Midlands and London.  As she tells Clare, it’s a way of building confidence and increasing diversity in the outdoors.  It's an exhilarating and challenging walk, made more so by the changeable weather they had on the day... from bright sunshine to snow and strong, biting wind.

We started at the main car park in Edale, which is near the railway station (station grid ref:  SK 123 853)
