I spent a beautiful crisp August morning watching the sunrise over the Hope Valley and exploring the dramatic limestone pinnacles of the Winnats Pass. Winnats Pass (or just Winnats as it is shown on some Ordnance Survey maps) is a hill pass and limestone gorge in the Peak District of Derbyshire, England. It lies to the west of the village of Castleton, in the National Trust's High Peak Estate and the High Peak borough of Derbyshire. The road winds through a cleft, surrounded by towering limestone pinnacles. The name is a corruption of 'wind gates'. A local legend is that the pass is haunted after a young couple were murdered by miners.
