KINDER SCOUT | GRINDBROOK CLOUGH | WOOLPACKS |JACOB'S LADDER | PEAK DISTRICT

Steph and I ventured up Kinder Scout in early March 2024. A moderate to challenging day hike including a grade one scramble. The scramble was located towards the top section of Grindsbrook Clough. We hiked along the plateau towards the Woolpacks, Pym Chair and Kinder Low. We descended via Jabob's Ladder and returned to our start point at Edale village. This was a circular route of approx 9 miles/14 km.

Do note, that the weather conditions can change very quickly and without warning. Kinder Scout at times, has poor visibility and is very boggy underfoot in places. Always, plan ahead, have a backup plan and make sure you have the right gear for the right situation. Conduct your own risk assessment when accessing the Peaks, as beautiful as they are, they do present hazards. Leave no trace, take your rubbish with you.

    Yay Kinder Scout! What a lovely walk and I'm so glad you both had a better day of weather this time. I absolutely adore Grindbrook Clough, think it's fantastic. Looks like there were very few other walkers around too which is always a bonus. Glad you had a good brekkie. Went to the Maynard recently for a birthday bash. All the best 😃👍

    The Maynard is fantastic, I’d stay there again. The walk was brilliant, enjoyable from beginning to end. Not many people about either. X

    A well made, and enjoyable video. Thank you for making it. I live only 18 miles from Kinder, and I am ashamed to say that I have never been up there. I must really make the effort to do so when the weather improves.
