Kinder Downfall is a picturesque valley in the Peak District National Park, Derbyshire, England. The valley is surrounded by rolling hills, limestone cliffs, and scenic hiking trails. The River Kinder flows gently through the valley, creating a serene atmosphere. The area is popular for walking, hiking, and rock climbing, with stunning views from the top of the surrounding hills. On a clear day, the valley offers breathtaking vistas of the surrounding countryside.
The Kinder Scout Plateau is a stunning area to explore. There are multiple points you can stop off but Kinder Downfall was worth the walk and the 40mph winds we had to deal with on the day. Wind so quick the water was being blown back up! Took about 3 hours of slow walking to get up there from Jacobs ladder but It's worth it for the views alone!
Another good hike getting upto kinder downfall and then resting up there for a bite too eat with views, save being at home looking at the TV eating
This is quite the hike from Bowden Bridge, especially in the winter. Saw lots of people underdressed and having to turn around. Please do your research before dragging your family up here in the colder months!
This place is challenging, I've not hiked in a while so it took me by surprise, unfortunately I run out of time so I didn't get to venture the whole area, but I will go back! Great walk! Amazing scenery it's definitely one to visit.
A sheer drop from the edge of the plateau, so be careful. Very impressive helicopter drops the day I was there, leaving up stones for dam construction (according to one of the workmen).
Super hot and sunny! Why do other dog owners leave poo bags in the summit? Easy walk, although a long one with stunning views over Manchester. Much much less busy than Mantour. Easy gravel paths with a little bit of scrambling. Suitable for dogs, just take water as there are. I streams for a while.
