Aerial film of the Peak District including many popular sites and some hidden gems.

A compilation of aerial footage of the Peak District. I've put this film together from footage filmed over the last year. Some of the shots are from just outside the Peak District but are worthy of including in this film.

[@classicalmusic1175]

The Peak District is absolutely stunning. Every time I go there I feel humbled and lucky to be alive. Fantastic footage.

[@waynerallison5339]

The first time I visited the Peak District was by mistake as I got held up in road works and was running late and decided to find a quite place to sleep in my car.. when I work up in the morning on top of a hill over looking a valley I had tears come to my eyes as the views was stunning. Every one should visit it at least once in their lifetime.

[@jellybean6582]

What a beautiful film, makes me realise what a stunning location I live in and how much of it I've covered on foot 😍

Beautifully presented God's own country.... Time to make England Great again

a beautiful addition to the Dave's Walks and Drives I've been enjoying recently. Didn't need the music. the sight was enough.

Such a lovely place, what great drone footage! Have subscribed 🙂 👍🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@peteaustin8056]

Richard this is a really stunning piece of work . It is quite inspirational. I have visited only a handful of these places in my 30 years of living on the edge of the Peak District (Macclesfield) - your work leaves me hungry to explore more, and a handy list of specific places to visit. Thank you for sharing it.

[@RichardBowringvideos]

Thank You.

[@RobNicholson1234]

Even on a wintery evening like this, it's still a pleasure to drive from Sheffield back to Bollington. It becomes the Dark Peak... except for the bright welcoming lights of Hathersage, Hope and Castleton - the pubs welcoming you in on a dark stormy night...

[@Normanskie]

Very nice well put together video with a good choice of music, thank you I have enjoyed watching it for the third time.

You sir are an inspiration.

Thank you, I appreciate your comments. The video took me the best part of a year to film, I put it together from extracts of videos I filmed all over the Peak District. I got over 100,000 views of this video on Facebook.

[@andrewrobertson2603]

The cinematography here is fantastic! Just fabulous from the drone angles to the music choice! Thank you so much for posting

[@jorgemiguel12]

Thanks for this amazing video which I know you spent lots of hours putting together. The best thing is that they are tagged which allows people to create a list of places they can go to. I just got back from Peak District 2 wks ago and wished I saw this before. Now I want to go back as it looks like I’ve missed a lot. See, you’ve already encouraged tourism which is what travel vloggers like you make people do. All the best in your channel and I wish you continue on.

[@timothydowd3758]

Thank you I really enjoyed that, especially as you named all the locations and there were a few that I did not know.

That my friend is a complete guide to the peak district Tons of places I haven't heard a very well put together piece of quality film, A huge like from me.

[@globalcoinsagencylimited2809]

Richard- you are a gifted film maker with thoughtful edits and great musicality. I particularly liked the way you showed humans, whether driving or walking, interacting with the landscapes.You move the drone in imaginative ways, and I suspect a lot of set up was needed for some shots but your visualisation is on point.

[@RichardBowringvideos]

Thank you for your comment, I appreciate your feedback :)

[@RobNicholson1234]

Have shared to the Bollington Facebook group - we often walk in the Peak District. They are loving it

[@RichardBowringvideos]

Thank you

The Peak District isone place I hope to visit. Thanks for taking me there.

[@sugarbertie1143]

Great bit of filming of my own county. I'm lucky to live within 30 mins drive of some of these places (Staveley) and you don't realise what's on your doorstep. Only now in my 50s have I started photographing the Peak more. My late fathers job took him round the Peak nearly every day for 24 years. I always envied him for that in later years, god bless him!

[@wilfcoach]

Hi Richard. I just watched excerpts from this superb video on Alan Titchmarsh’s program this morning. That set me looking for your stuff on KZbin - and finding this! Congratulations on a brilliant piece of work, beautifully synchronised with the music you chose. 👏🏻👏🏻

Richard - thank you very much for this, it is stunning! Sadly the lockdown is keeping me and many others away for now so it’s wonderful to be reminded how amazing the Peak District really is. I’m looking forward to catching up with it asap.

Hello Richard. Just wanted to congratulate you on such a beautiful film, expertly shot, edited and presented. We've been to many of those lovely places but you have also introduced us to a number of new ones. We're lucky enough to live in the area and your movie made us appreciate it even more! Outstanding work, so thanks.

Hi Richard, it's sensational. I've lived in Sheffield all my life - Visited Stanage for the first time last week and wanted to see if there was any footage around and your masterpiece just auto played - i've been transfixed. I'll be out and about more often as a result of seeing all these wonderful places, some known, most not! Cheers to you.

[@SaiKungKing]

Thanks very much, Richard; this is the most beautiful description of Derbyshire I have ever seen. I'm from there, and now live in Hong Kong; this shows the beauty of the county I am so proud to have come from, a magical place for a youngster!

Loved the snow blowing across the fields

[@RichardBowringvideos]

The snow was filmed during the "Beast from the East" It was bitterly cold that day and it was so windy I struggled to get the drone back.

[@RobNicholson1234]

I'm not surprised. My friend was leading a walk along Taxal Edge during that week but we reined our plans in and skirted just around the edge of the Peak District. Even then we had to stagger through 6' snowdrifts. A wonder weather year :-) I was also supposed to be driving to Sheffield mid-week but every single route across the hills was closed. I don't go down Winnats Pass when there is any snow on the ground! That's another great shot in the video

[@big_bashy2093]

I love i will use it for my Geography presentation

Oh what a pity they did not have drones when I was younger and did the Pennine Way and Coast to Coast Hikes!! BUT its through sites like this than I can almost do them again. Thanks for letting me Dream

[@philipjbateman4882]

Amazing video, you’ve got some great shots there! Are you able to tell me what the rules are on flying drones in the Peak District? I want to do it myself when I’m hiking but not sure which places allow drone flights. I’d really appreciate your help/advice. Thanks!

[@RichardBowringvideos]

It's getting more restrictive in the Peak District to fly drones. The National Trust don't allow them on their land and The Peak District National Park don't like you flying them anywhere in the Dark Peak area. Definite no fly areas are Chatsworth and Derwent/Ladybower dams. Thanks for your comment :) www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visiting/frequently-asked-questions/drones

[@onemandrone]

Hi, are Drones allowed in the Peak District? Looked online and they seem to be not allowed? Im going there this weekend.

[@RichardBowringvideos]

There are areas where they are not allowed which includes most of the dark peak area. The reason given is to protect ground nesting birds. Drones are explicitly forbidden between march and august. However I do see a lot of people flying drones and we are outside the nesting season. I've been approached by park rangers, some have told me to land my drone, others have been enthusiastic about the drone and asked me lots of questions and wanted one themselves so they can catch poachers. My advice is be sensible, don't fly too close to people or wildlife and you should be OK. Avoid Chatsworth and Derwent/ladybower reservoirs, they are definitely no fly areas. this link may help www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visiting/frequently-asked-questions/drones

[@onemandrone]

@@RichardBowringvideos thank you so much.

[@NA-bt9mx]

@@RichardBowringvideos i know its a while since you uploaded that video footage (which is amazing btw - may I ask which drone did you use?), however... if I will follow caa regulations and will not disturb any animals, can anyone tell me to land my drone ? Let's say some random people that are not happy even if I would be whistling there only (special kind)

[@RichardBowringvideos]

@@NA-bt9mx Thanks, I used a Mavic Pro for this video. It's only land owners, park rangers, farmers etc that can tell you to land if you are flying on their property.
