Do you like hiking in the peak district? We found the hardest hike in the peak district and decided to do a hiking vlog. We started hiking in the peaks from Edale towards the Kinder Scout Summit. After a difficult start we reached the Summit Kinder Scout.

This is Peak District Hiking at it's very best and is the most difficult hiking in the peak district.

Previously I've found uk hiking in the peaks easy. This route changed that. I will certainly return for more walking in the peak district.

The kinder scout hiking route we used for our gps was floored. This is because the gpx file we downloaded was badly put together.

In total, after getting lost, we hiked just over 11 miles and 2200 ft of elevation with a walking time of just under 4 hours with an average of 2.8 mph walking speed. Full details here Strava: strava

Kinder Scout Hiking is certainly more challenging that I was expecting. The fairly flat top is actually quite difficult to navigate and walking on the peat takes quite a lot of energy up.

Without a doubt this is the best Peak District Walking I have ever done. I love hiking in the uk, usually hiking in the lake district and hiking in snowdonia but this felt just as good.

Most people seem to go up Jacobs Ladder from Edale and then onto Edale Rocks. This is much easier and I'm glad we reversed the route to make it more challenging.

My friend Matt from @mattanthonyphotography on instagram took some absolutely amazing photos. Please head over to instagram to see his photos Instagram: mattanthonyphotography

I used my Soto Windmaster Stove and Soto Thermostack Cook Set Combo to cook lunch. I also tested out my new Inov-8 Roclite 345 GTX hiking boots. Have a look at my other videos for reviews on these pieces of backpacking gear.

I would really like to know what you think of my first peak district hiking video. Please let me know in the comment below.

Thanks, Andy.

Please note the amazon link is what everyone sees and pays but I receive a miniscule finders fee when people use the link. It all goes back into backpacking gear!
