    Lovely film, it reminds me of walking with my Dad as a young man in the 1970's on Kinder, which fueled my love of walking and the wonderful Peak District to this day. Thankyou.

    Another beautiful film and wonderful walk, but the real stand out here was the music score which added atmosphere in abundance. A real masterpiece of composition Patrick.

    Late in watching this Patrick we only got back from Robin Hoods Bay on Sunday, Kinderscout always takes me back to 1976 when as a 16 year old Scout along with 3 other Scouts we started our Pennine Way adventure a 280 mile walk to Kirk Yetholm, it was in the Scouts I discovered my love of walking and over 50 years later I'm still banging in the miles, great film thank you.

    I've never seen anything about Kinder Scout on film before, Patrick, and it's mighty good of you to have given us this presentation, which is fantastic. It's incredible to see so many rock formations on this plateau, nothing that I ever thought that what it would look like. The Downfall must really look spectacular when there's been a particular wet season, but it still looks great, like what you've shown us. The views, yes, must be really panoramic looking over to New Mills and into Greater Manchester. Anyhow, what people fought for all those years ago was well worth it, for the benefit of others to enjoy in later years up to present. The countryside of Great Britain should be welcome for us all (now, and in the future). Many thanks.

      Glad you enjoyed this Ffranc. There are certainly many other videos on TH-cam of Kinder Scout as I guess it's one of the essential places to visit in the Peak District. This is the second one I've done. Would have loved to have seen thw Downfall in spate, but yes it was still great to see all the same. I think a lot of us take for granted the benefits we all have now to walk anywhere thanks to the trespass. Thanks as always Ffranc for watching and commenting 👍

    It's a beautiful hike today, Patrick. I have only been up Kinder a few times, and last time was the Edale Skyline Challenge. That one did me in. It takes the young ones about 7 hours, it took me nearly 15 hours. I have really enjoyed this one, Patrick. Thank you so much for sharing. To think, if it were not for the mass trespass, then would we all be up there today?

    • @solitaryrambler
      @solitaryrambler  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad you enjoyed it Chris. It is amazing to think how much we probably take for granted today when you think of what the mass trespass did for us. I don't think I would attempt the Edale Skyline Challenge now, I'm sure I'd be done in too 😅 Thanks Chris for watching and commenting, all the best 👍

    Probably my fave Peak District walk. We went from Edale village, up onto the ridge via the zig zag path and along to the trig point, back down Jacob's Ladder and across the fields back to the car. A superb day.

    I've always found Kinder to be a magical place. The views up there across the landscape are wonderful. It's always windy up there though and i thought it might blow your hat off. I remember walking down from Kinder to the Mermaids Pool. We should be thankful for the protesters, as they changed the law and won our right to roam, which we should have anyway. When i saw that you'd uploaded today, i thought as soon as I'm home then it's some tea and biscuits and let's catch up on where Patrick's been. You did some walking there and parts are difficult enough without holding a camera. You did extremely well. Lovely that those ladies thanked you for the pleasure your walks give to people. They really are always a joy to watch. Keep on rambling. Cheers Patrick 😁

    • @solitaryrambler
      @solitaryrambler  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think Kinder is very magical too, love the place and haven't been up there much really. I do lose my hat (temporarily) in another film! 😅 Yes it's thanks to the protesters that we have the Peak District National park today and the right to roam. I tried to capture with my camera how difficult the walk can be in parts as well as showcasing the various terrain encountered on this walk. It was lovely of those ladies indeed, I was a bit worried a first when they suddenly approached me in the street, but once they explained it was indeed a lovely thing. Thanks Kelly as always for watching and for your continued support. All the best 👍

    I do believe it was getting windier as you got higher Patrick - as it does of course. But I thought your mic coped well. Always impressive up there - I didn't think their were that many people. Or maybe most of your route was away from the Kinder honey spots. I think that was it. Yes, I've seen Kinder Downfall spray backwards before. It is unusual. Gotta say I love them cloughs Patrick and I like to hear stories of the viewers. Good that the daughter of the late man got to speak to you. Well, you followed the mass trespassers. What would walking in this country be like without them? Good going - a fab walk. Mark

    • @solitaryrambler
      @solitaryrambler  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The wind certainly picked up Mark as I got closer onto Kinder. That piece of kitchen sponge stuck on my camera mic is great 😁 It doesn't shield the wind completely of course, but it still does a pretty good job. I started this walk pretty early in the morning, so it got busier with other walkers towards the end. I've not seen the backwards spray of the Downfall myself, hoping to do so of course one day. I love all those cloughs too as they descend from the plateau, they give it part of its character. Yeah great to have met those three women, nice of the one to mention her late father. A classic walk this of course. We do owe them a lot for our enjoyment of where we can walk today. Thanks for watching and commenting Mark. All the best down there 👍
