Kinder Scout Climbing Notes
Ian Boys from UNITED KINGDOM writes:
Easiest way up is from Hayfield Campsite following the pack horse trail up to Edale Cross - gentle gradient and paved at lower levels and leads up to a good nexus of paths that can take you over to Edale or across the southern and western ends of the plateau.
Safety notes:
- Weather (esp cloud base) changes VERY quickly on Kinder. A clear sky can become low cloud incredibly fast. If the cloud base starts dropping and you're not intimately familiar with the area, start heading downhill ASAP.
- Take more water than you think you'll need.
- Next to no cover at all on the plateau. One or two overhanging rocks, everywhere exposed to wind.
