On Yer Bike – An Active Peak District Stag and Hen Party Weekend

Article published: February 7th, 2013

As the better weather approaches, it’s time to start thinking about cycling in Derbyshire’s Peak District. The Peak District National Park Authority has just welcomed the Government’s £12m injection to boost cycling opportunities in England’s national parks. The park’s authorities will be able to bid for their share, in partnership with the highways authorities, to enable more people to cycle.

The region is famous for its cycle trails, including Tissington and the High Peak trails and our superb Mountain Biking activity routes link to these. Our 24 and 21 speed bikes can be taken on trails from the leg-friendly 3 mile route, or even the full 8 mile reservoir circuit, passing through beautiful local villages. The routes take anything from one to three hours and, as mentioned, also link to the Tissington and High Peak trails.

Mix mountain biking with a combination of any other activities and you have a healthy, fun Peak District stag party or hen party weekend.

All the fun with no drama

We had such a good stag do with Hard Days Knight in the Peak District, and I honestly can’t recommend them enough! From the start, they organised everything down to a tee, making it a weekend none of us will forget. The accommodation was good, comfortably fitting our group and perfectly located for everything on the itinerary. One of the absolute highlights was the Hunted activity - a mix of orienteering with a twist where you’re actually being chased! It was such a laugh and brought out everyone's competitive side, with a good bit of adrenaline thrown in. A massive thank you to Greg in particular, whose communication was faultless. He kept us updated every step of the way, answered all our questions, and went out of his way to make sure everything went smoothly. His local knowledge and enthusiasm really added to the experience and made us feel like we were in safe hands. If you're planning a stag do and want a unique, well-organised experience in the Peaks, Hard Days Knight is the way to go. Cheers to Greg and the team for a brilliant weekend - we’re still talking about it!

My brother's stag do was nothing short of amazing. We've had a myriad of activities to choose from in a wonderful location. Sadly, the Best Man, who paid the deposit for the country house we stayed in, had some disputes with the property owner, who withheld the deposit claiming damages (which were previously there). Once Hard Days Knight was informed, Greg immediately stepped in to refund our deposit out of pocket, so that he can help handle and mediate. This immediately shows us that Greg prioritises keeping our Stag Do a happy memory, and it's very much appreciated.

We had an excellent time on our brother’s stag that we organised with Greg. Cannot fault the experience, Greg was extremely helpful and efficient with putting together a great weekend in a fairly short period of time. The accommodation suggested worked out perfectly, especially with the attached pool, hot tub and games room which were an added bonus. The activities lived up to our expectations and again were well organised and timings made the whole weekend work without any issues. Everyone had a lot of fun and I would highly recommend going with HDK for any stag/ hen-do.
