Had a small walk around Kinder Scout. The real Kinder is too high for me, so we stayed low and entered the area at a different angle, as we had heard about the waterfalls, and stream. Fairbrook and seal stones area.

We had planned swim gear, sun gear, sun cream. You name it we planned for a total dry day. And what happened it only went and rained all day as soon as we arrived. Not light drizzle either. Not what we had hoped for. This is putting a spanner in the works!

We saw lots of school events of walking and jumping upstream, but besides them we saw maybe 2 hikers all day. Views are stunning, but the terrain a little too much for me. We didn’t go far up as we knew we had planned a wild camp in the woods nearby.

Soaking wet,cold and muddy we headed off to the next location to see if it would dry up and we could have some tea.
