  • Welcome back to another Peak District hike! In this weeks video I tackle a classic hike up to Mam Tor, along The Great Ridge and over to Kinder Scout. We finally had some sunshine and blue skies here in the Peak District so I took full advantage of this stunning weather!

    I'm reloading forward to duplicating this route, you should show your routes on a map, your knowledge of the area is fantastic

    Another great video, Alex. I was up Kinder the other week on the 88 Challenge went from Bowden Bridge, Sandy Hays, Outer Edge, Kinder Low, Edale Cross, and back down to Bowden Bridge. It is simply beautiful up there, and Kinder Downfall was Kinder Upfall, too. Thanks for sharing, and Merry Christmas Alex to you and those you love.

    always a good trek up there or car camp at the bottom,, but getting the drone to follow you etc makes some awesome scenes :)

    I have a treadmill that inclines and that was really good for helping with hamstrings and Achilles tendon issues I have.

    Alex, what a video, absolutely fantastic! One of my favourite routes, and one I am planning to do again with a few friends in January!
    But we will be taking the route via Hope back to Castleton and back up the broken road. I hope we get similar conditions to you. 😀

    Hi mate,loved the video,very inspirational!
    I’ve just got into a little bit of hiking/walking with a couple of mates and have so far done:
    Kinder via Jacob’s ladder, snowdon via the llanberis path and mam tor from castleton and this was something we’d discussed doing before I came across your video.
    Could I ask roughly how long it took?
    Cheers

    • @alexcripps.outdoors
      @alexcripps.outdoors  Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you so much 😊 awesome to hear you’ve just got into hiking. This route was quite a long day out from memory, you definitely want to give yourself a full day so you can fully enjoy it. It was roughly 4-5 hours for me but I like to walk fast when I’m solo, if I was with friends I’d definitely give myself a good 6 hours to do it 👍
