A BEAUTIFUL WALK WITH A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN WITH A PERSONALITY TO MATCH. THANK YOU FOR A GREAT DAY OUT.❤👍👍👍
Thank you, pleased you enjoyed the video 😊
Thoroughly enjoyed that video.
You have a really lovely and soothing style and the videography and music were. Spot on.
Subscribed for more 👌🏻
Thanks Graham, really lovely to hear you enjoyed the video & have subscribed for more😊 have a lovely rest of the weekend 🫶🏻
I did this walk yesterday. Apart from the heart pounding walk up Jacob’s Ladder the hardest part I found was just after reaching Kinder scout and finding a route through the boggy peat areas which got me having to double back on myself a couple of times as I accidentally went off route. All good experience though !
Hope you enjoyed, it’s a beautiful route in the Peaks & definitely a challenge in poor conditions once up on the ridge! 😊
What a joy to watch Christine! Possibly my favourite video yet. It looks a perfect 10 miler with nice paths and super rock formations. It makes you want to be there... like now! 🙂 and just to add fabulous music to accompany your video. Perfect!
Thanks Tony! Lovely to hear you really enjoyed this one 🫶 It's a great all day hike in the Peaks, the pennine way is lovely & the rock formations along the ridge are great fun! Definitely recommend it if you haven't already given it a go! Also pleased to hear you enjoyed the music too - have an awesome weekend, thanks for tagging along again 😊
been walking this area for more than 12 years + now glad you like the area Thank you .
Absolutely loved the area, really beautiful & atmospheric landscape! Thanks for watching Andrew :)
Love how you explain everything, thank you for sharing. This peak is on my list and came here for some guidance/ prep :)
Glad you enjoyed the video & found it helpful 😊 hope you enjoy the hike when you complete it!
lovely walk with lovely scenery,just love it when you don,t see anybody
Thanks Ken - pleased you enjoyed & absolutely, nothing beats the undisturbed sounds of the outdoors 🙌🏻😊
amazing video and views are epic but god wow you are beautiful x all the best to you!
Thank you, lovely to hear you enjoyed the video & you too 😊
Absolutely majestic scenery my friend, heavenly beautiful place! 🥾🥾
Isn’t it just?! Thanks Ervin - appreciate the support 💛✨
You seem to be blessed with the best weather on all of your recent walks !! Beautiful scenery and not a soul around, just perfect 👌🚶♀️
It does look like I’m a fair weather hiker doesn’t it?! Honestly not though, just been lucky with the weather recently on weekends I’ve got filming planned! & definitely, love it when it’s peacefully quiet 🙌🏻☺️
Love Kinder Scout. Thanks for the video. I hope you found the pub once you got back to Edale 😊
Thanks for watching & the pub in Edale was most definitely found at the end of this one 😊🙌🏻
Stunning countryside, lovely day. What's not to like? Thank you for being a great video walk companion and, of course, sharing your experience.
Thank you for tagging along again - it’s a stunning area & I was lucky with the weather 🫶🏻 pleased you enjoyed the video :)
What a great video , absolutely breathtaking views 😊.
You sure did have the Weather Gods on your side again, also didn’t see any other walkers .
Does the 10miles include back and forth for setting up the camera 😁.
Thank you very much Ranbir, pleased you enjoyed this video too 😊 It was a lovely mid week trip out so luckily relatively quiet & haha sadly it does not, quite the extra mileage when filming these sometimes!!
It was also Kinder Scout where the mass tresspass took place about 75 years ago. It was this that lead to the right to roam and National Parks. Still to do Kinder myself.
Very true - hadn’t appreciated that piece of history until visiting, so interesting! & definitely recommend, it’s an awesome route 😊
What a great walk. Great video... Only got around to doing MamTor/Back Tor myself recently.. Had been on a bucket list for ages... Thanks
It is a great circular walk! Thanks Mike, nice to hear you enjoyed the video 🫶🏻 & Mam Tor is stunning too, especially for sunrise!
Great video,amazing scenery and filming ,Thank you for sharing .🙂
Thank you - pleased you enjoyed this one 💛😊
Great video, thanks for sharing 😊 The weather looks great too.
Have a fabulous weekend
Thank you 🫶🏻 yes it was a beautifully sunny day, almost too hot for hiking! Not complaining though as rather that than rain 🙃 hope you had a good weekend too, bring on the next!
My favourite county in the world Derbyshire bring it on.
Just had to subscribe like your channel presentation and music. Well done breath of fresh air
Thank you - really lovely to hear you're enjoying the videos 😊 & yes definitely a stunning part of the UK Derbyshire is!
That's a great walk Christine! I did it the other way round last year, up grinds brook and down Jacobs ladder with a much deserved pint in the pub in edale! 😀😀
Yeah really enjoyed it & as you say, definitely in need of refreshment in Edale after a good day out in the Peaks! Went to Newfold farm campsite for a drink and ice cream, was perfect 👌🏻
Glad you enjoyed this route, including the wonderful rock formation field known as the woolpacks! It looks like you descended via Ringing Roger, with Grindsbrook Clough to your right. In terms of other routes for Kinder, you can ascend by many different routes. For me, the Cloughs often offer a fun route up with some scrambling sections. Grindsbrook is great, most people keep straight on at the end But the right hand fork provide a nice scramble section. Crowden Clough (between Grindsbrook and Jacobs Ladder offers some very nice scrambling if you stay on it all the way to the top, including a waterfall about 20 to 25 feet high. The William Clough route from Hayfield past Kinder Reservoir is a very pleasant route up to the North Western corner of Kinder. The Northern Edge offers spectacular views across to Bleaklow and Higher Shelf Stones and Derwent Edge. There are many routes and Clough scrambles to ascend and descend it. It’s also much less frequented than the Southern and Western Edges. The plateau itself is very large and can be tricky to navigate, it’s best avoided in wet periods as it turns into a peat bog and there are a lot of peat gruffs (channels in the Peat), some of which are very deep. There is a short plateau crossing from South to North which is known as the 7 minute crossing at the narrowest point. It starts between Great Tor and Nether Tor on the South side and finishes near the top of Blackden Brook on the North Side. It took me about 12 minutes to get across. Great video, really enjoyed it.
Hi Greg, thanks for watching, really lovely to hear you enjoyed the video 🫶🏻 & thank you so much for sharing all that information on the surrounding area and alternative routes to enjoy, will be sure to try some of those in the future, especially heading up to see the waterfall, hopefully in good conditions! Take care & thanks again, really appreciate you reaching out with all your knowledge! Christine
This video just came up on my you tube recommendations i don't tend to walk many walking videos over 10 minutes long but i watched some of it I've subscribed anyway i was up there on Monday.
Hi 👋 Hope you enjoyed your visit to Kinder Ridge on Monday, it's a beautiful place & thanks for subscribing :)
Beautiful video of this stunning area, you did well on the ladder, that part is a slog let alone walking back down to get your footage, did that walk last year right out to downfall then back through to Grindslow knoll my legs were dead 😂
Thanks Andrew - pleased you enjoyed this one too 😊 (sorry for the late reply, been ill the last few weeks and seemed to have missed this one!) haha yeah it was tough work, but worth it to see the views twice 🤣 I can imagine, I didn’t fancy going back via grindslow as looked tough going! Well done 👏🏻
@@shefreelyroams fantastic area to explore,, sorry to hear that you have been ill, a frustration when you love getting outdoors, I wish you a a speedy recovery
@@andrewfox7861 thanks Andrew, it definitely was frustrating not being out & about, luckily feeling better now & almost back to my usual energetic self! Hope you’re having a lovely weekend so far 😊
😁👍 hi Christine, I've just watched the video and thought you did well doing that particular walk in 5-6 hrs on a hot day. I was wildcamping up on Kinder Scout last weekend but instead of ascending via Jacobs ladder, I took more difficult but direct route up via grindsbrook clough from edale 😁 This walk you did is a good one and can take most of the day to do.. Stunning views as you Assendon and the rock formations along the Kinder skyline are spectacular and the gritstone is surprisingly very grippy unlike the white peak area where the limestone when wet can be tricky underfoot.. I'm off into the peak district in the morning ( very early ) I'm still undecided where to go for a day hike.. On your next visit to the peak district, checkout the many Dale's ie Chee Dale, miller's Dale, monsal Dale, and the stunning padley gorge near Grindleford and the Longshaw estate.. All great for day hikes but arrive early for parking as these are popular areas for visitors.. Then there's other high level walks you could do ranging from Burbage rocks, stannage edge and ladybower and derwent reservoirs.. So many places to visit in the dark and white peaks areas.. Village's, valleys and ridges 😁 Enjoyed your video, glad you had a nice day for it..
Hey Mike 👋 thanks for the lovely comment, really glad you enjoyed the video 😊 It definitely felt like a long 5-6 hours at times with the heat! That sounds incredible & I've heard that route is a little more challenging - good going 👍 Hope you had a good day out this week in the Peaks, where did you end up hiking? And thank you so much for the recommendations, really helpful - I actually did a circular walk from Bamford along the ridge to Ladybower Reservoir which was beautiful, will give the others ago next time 🙌 Have an awesome weekend!
@shefreelyroams hiya Christine 😁 I ended up doing an 8-10 mile circular hike from Robin Hoods Stride and the bronze age stone circle, Stanton Moor and the nine ladies stone circle then on and off the Limestone Way heading back to the car via Alport Bradford , limestone way and Castle Ring. A great day and had everything from ancient oak woodland, gritstone rock formations, a hermits cave, open heathland on stanton Moor,. A quick lunch stop at stanton in the Peak 👍 then on a section of the limestone way through farmland, a national trail and a few steepish hill climbs 😁 I kept stopping all the time to take photos.. in the end it took me 10 hrs the whole route 😁 I don't do RUclips videos, but I follow quite a lot of regulars including yourself as they are inspirational and give me ideas of walks etc 😁👍 all my photos go on Facebook or Instagram if I have a phone signal 🤣😁 Have a great weekend.. I'm at the moment considering a wildcamp now I've finished work 😁🏕
Amazing Mike, sounds like a really varied circular & the perfect way to spend a day outside! Even if 10 hours sounds really long, I’m the same sometimes with losing a lot of time for photography/filming but hey it’s great fun to capture so time we’ll spent 🙌🏻📸 ooo this evenings weather would have been great for a camp, mind the thunderstorms tomorrow though! no outdoor adventures for me this weekend as been ill this week so rest is the priority. Have a good one :)
New to the channel 🙂 Your videos kept coming up as suggested on my homepage and I'm glad I checked them out (new Subscriber now also). It looks like you had a great day up on Kinder, one my my favourite places in the Peak for sure, especially the 'woolpacks' boulder field. It looked very quiet on the day of tor walk, was this mid week? Normaly when I have gone up on a weekend Jacobs ladder is mobbed. Great video, look forwards to watching more.
Hello & welcome 👋🏻 It was a great day out on the kinder ridge, very fortunate with the weather - yes you’re right, was a mid week walk so jacobs ladder was pretty quiet, it was only a little busy at kinder low when I left. Thank you for tagging along, pleased you enjoyed the video 😊
Hi Christine. This will certainly rattle a few cages and p*** a lot of people off but I find this area really depressing.
I have no idea why it's just a feeling that comes over me and feel relieved to leave but then I confess to being somewhat odd...
Hey 👋🏻 not at all, I think that’s quite understandable given it’s renowned for being a pretty dark/gloomy open moorland! I was lucky to enjoy it when the sun was out but imagine it feels quite different on a cloudier day!
The Original route up the Pennine Way did not use Jacobs Ladder but followed the stream from the Pub in the Village of Edale then went over the Moors to follow the stream up to and over Kinder Downfall.
Thanks Tony for sharing that information - very interesting 👍🏻
@@shefreelyroams Finally found my Pennine Way Companion book and to clarify my route from Edale was the footpath down the side of the PUB to GRINDSLOW HOUSE, then follow the track/footpath until you connect with Grinds Brook follow that upstream until you meet Croden Brook, then follow Crowden Brook to Kinder Gates where you pick up the River Kinder which is the stream that falls over Kinder Downfall. I left Eadale at 11am and arrived at Kinder Downfall at 3pm, from Kinder Downfall you could always complete the Loop by walking down via the PW Alternative Route along the stepped pathway. Edale to Kinder Downfall by my route just over 4 miles. Tony in Essex
@@user-TonyUK thanks Tony, I met people doing a similar route from grinds brook when I did this circular route! Sounds like a really nice alternative - hope you enjoyed it 😊
@@shefreelyroams Yes it was enjoyable and If only I coud do it again tomorrow I would, a lot less hikers about and as I joined the uphill section I met up with some younger people (I was over 40 yrs old at the time and had recently left the Army) and they offered to carry my rucksack (which was not needed, but it was kind of them to ask) instead I offered to carry one of theirs. Needless to say they struggled onwards and upwards following me as I was the only one in the group to have the book and a map, and more importantly the knowledge of mapreading. They were only on a day hike and I did not tell them until we parted at Kinder Downfall that this was just Day one of my nearly 300 miles to Kirk Yetholme in Scotland. Maybe when you get to retirment age you too can look back on your hiking trips and remember each and every one of them as though they were only Yesterday. Happy Hiking, Tony in Essex.
@@user-TonyUK aw that sounds epic and quite an achievement - little did they know your adventure! Hopefully I can look back too with fond memories of my hiking adventures. Have a lovely weekend Tony - thanks for sharing your memories :) Christine
Great video :) What time of year/day did you walk? I went up today, in Jan, and it was packed! I'd have preferred less people but such a beautiful place 😊
Thank you Joanne, pleased you enjoyed the video 🫶🏻 I did this in June during the week and first thing in the morning, generally avoiding weekends and school holidays is a good shout! As you say, can get busy but it’s still such a beautiful place to enjoy 🫶🏻
Is it in Perth Australia?
No Peak District in the UK 🇬🇧
Hi, can you share the post code for car park please? Thanks
Hi 👋🏻 yes I parked here S33 7ZQ
GREAT VID BUT MUSIC DOESNT ADD TO IT FOR ME
I am sorry but I disagree! I really loved the music on this one and felt that it gave off such a positive vibe :)
Thanks Marc, I appreciate the music isn’t for everyone! Thanks for tagging along nonetheless 😊
Thanks Julie, pleased you enjoyed 🫶🏻✨
Marc there is zero need to point out the music isn't for you. Absolutely none, other than to be a c#nt.👍
