Kinder Scout walk via Jacob’s Ladder Peak District
This epic walks from Edale, starts at either Edale village or Upper Booth car park.
This is also the official starting point of the Pennine Way, the oldest and most iconic National Trail which offers a rugged taste of Northern England
From the car park, we headed out the top of the road, along an old tarmac road, on route to Jacob’s Ladder.
One goes up Jacob’s Ladder and the other follows the official Pennine Way route. Both meet at the top in the same place so it’s more personal preference.
