Peak District - Kinder Scout (from Edale via Pennine Way)

Описание: A night of camping below Kinder plateau after spending the day hiking on the hills. And early train from Kings Cross dropped me at Edale from where my journey began, but not before I had a pint of "energy" at the famous Old Nags Head pub. This also marks the start of the 268 miles Pennine Way hike. The higher you go, the more beautiful the view. Crossing streams and green pastures, where sheep herds and cows graze, one reaches the Crowden Clough short scramble section. You can either continue on the path or just go up the rocks which is fun. At the top there is a choice to the left on the Pennine way or straight ahead via the stream bed and to the Kinder Waterfall. The path is not clear and at time not visible at all and broken. In poor weather conditions, good navigation skill are required. Watch out for the dead ends! From the waterfall I decided to go around keeping the ridge to Lower Kinder and then right in centre on the plateau. The only thing that marks the summit, if you can call it that way because is flat as far as you can see, is a small cairn. Tired, I've decided to head back to the ridge and camp behind some rocks with a fantastic view over the Reservoir and Manchester in the distance. If you don't wish to camp, take the quick Jacob's Ladder route back down to the village.
