Named after Ethel Haythornthwaite (the pioneer behind the Peak District National Park), the Ethels are all of the Peak District hills over 400m above sea level and significant lower prominent hills. Fewer, lower, easier and (for most of the UK's population) closer than the Munros of Scotland and the Wainwrights of the Lake District. Explore the highest hills of the Peak District. Track your progress through your own dated log and by using the interactive map from OpenStreetMap. Bonus level of the Peak 75 hills, on completion of the Ethels. Featured on BBC TV and Radio 4 The app is supported by the Peak District and South Yorkshire Branch of the Campaign to Protect Rural England (Registered Charity Number 1094975).
