Sun 14 Feb 2027 || Women's Kinder Scout Group Hike for Galentines Day

£35.00

What better way to spend Galentines Day than outdoors with the girls! We’ll do an amazing hike to the highest point in the Peak District - the epic Kinder Scout. It’s a striking route that includes a fun scramble (very beginner friendly) up Grindslow Knoll and heads over the big boulders of Kinder plateau. We’ll head down Jacob’s Ladder and back to Edale for drink in the pub to finish (optional).

We’ll have a day without any pressure, focus on enjoying the gorgeous scenery, making some new friends, and feeling safe in the outdoors amongst a women’s only guided group.
