Kinder Scout
My number one! It’s an absolutely brilliant walk, after all there is a reason it’s one of the most popular routes in the Peak District!
Starting in the historic village of Edale, the route heads towards Grindsbrook Clough where you’ll scramble up to the plateau of Kinder Scout. This is my favourite part of the walk as the scramble is just the right balance of challenging and enjoyable. Once at the top, you’ll head west which takes you along Kinder’s edge with some spectacular rock formations, and the best spots for a selfie! Eventually leading to Kinder Low trig point and from here you’ll head down Jacobs Ladders (you’ll be glad that you’ve gone down here not up when you see other walkers having to face the uphill climb of Jacob’s Ladder) and follow the sign posts back into Edale.
