About Kinder Scout

Kinder Scout

Kinder Scout is the highest point in the Peak District at 2,087 feet high, and the views from its plateaux are awe-inspiring in the truest sense of the words. Walking to the summit takes the visitor through a wide variety of different landscapes and perfectly illustrates the diversity of the Peak District. This is true hill-walking and trail-running country; the visitor can head off in pretty much any direction and explore wild, beautiful uplands, with mighty gritstone summits, moorland streams and waterfalls.
