Ellie Gillatt, Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service area manager, said: “Firefighters continue to face challenging conditions as they work to tackle the wildfire and protect the surrounding infrastructure and environment.
“This remains a significant and complex incident, requiring a protracted, multi-agency response.”
She urged members of the public to avoid the affected area and to follow any road and footpath closures.
The fire service said due to the extensive nature of the area covered, no cause had yet been established.
