Winnats Pass Sunrise!

A very early start to capture the sunrise over Winnats Pass in the Peak District, absolutely stunning an well worth the effort!

Winnats Pass 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 high limestone ridges. The pass was once thought to have originated as a giant collapsed cavern, however, a more recent explanation is that it was a ravine between the coral reefs that originally formed the limestone.
