Featherbed Top is a cool, flat-topped hill in England. It stands tall at 544 meters (about 1,785 feet) in the beautiful Peak District area, located in the county of Derbyshire. It's a great spot for exploring the outdoors!
Discovering Featherbed Top
Featherbed Top is a bare, rounded hilltop. It is covered by a special type of land called peat moorland. This means the ground is made of decaying plants, which makes it soft and spongy.
Where is Featherbed Top?
This hill is located about 900 meters (around half a mile) south of a famous walking path called the Pennine Way. This path crosses a road known as Snake Pass. Featherbed Top is also southeast of the town of Glossop.
A High Point in the Peak District
Featherbed Top is one of the highest hills you can find in the Peak District. The land around it is known as Featherbed Moss. However, don't get it mixed up with another hill that has the same name, which is about 10 kilometers (6 miles) further north!
