A grand day of journeying along the course of the River Kinder.
From it's confluence with the River Sett in Hayfield, we explore upstream local landmarks, the fairy bridge, woodland, plunge pools, waterfalls and mythology. We then trace a route across the Kinder Plateau, through the maze of cloughs to find the source of the River Kinder and true summit.
But the adventure is not over, as we descend there are more scenic delights and photo opportunities.
