The Peak Wildlife Park is a great place for anyone who loves the animal kingdom. Get to meet penguins, pigs, lemurs, tortoises, sheep, goats, meerkats and more……..  

The park features walk through areas where you can get up close to the animals and also offers special experiences where you can gain a look behind the scenes and help the keepers.

The Peak Wildlife Park is a 10 mile drive from Ashbourne.  Head out of Ashbourne on the A52 Leek Road and look for signs on the left as you go downhill towards Leek.  

Take service 108 towards Leek and ask the driver to stop at the end of their road.

It's a strenuous 25 mile round trip by bike but it can almost all be done along quiet back-roads.
