Hello :) This episode is all about Kinder Scout, an open plateau in the centre of the Peak District in England. I start by talking a bit about its location and its history, concentrating on the Mass Trespass back in 1932 that may have launched the 'right to roam' movement in the UK. The rest of the pod mentions the things you can see and visit on it, like the Kinder Downfall waterfall, the rock formations, the rock scrambles you can clamber up, and the mysterious 'Kinder Triangle'. I end by talking a bit about hiking barefoot, and why I'm not recommending that you do this. Contributions come from Becky The Traveller, Nat from NatPackerTravel, and Jeni (A Peak District Mum). Warning, contains singing.
