Kinder Reservoir from Bowden Bridge 14 August

A moderate circular guided walk around Kinder Reservoir starting from Bowden Bridge car park in Hayfield. Suitable for adventurous families!

  • Booking essential

Summer is one of the most exciting times to explore the Peak District's hidden gems with our carefully curated walk offering a low-level walk in the shadow of Kinder.

Join us on a circular walk in the shadow of the beautiful Kinder Scout National Nature Reserve. We’ll walk in the footsteps of the Kinder Mass Trespass as we march up to the edge of Kinder Scout before circling Kinder Reservoir and back to Hayfield.

The walk is approximately 5 miles and includes a short section of road, moderate ascent, uneven paths, cobbles some fords and a stream crossing.

Our walk leaders are incredibly knowledgeable, so please ask as many questions about the area as you like! Accompanied children are especially welcome but the walk is not suitable for pushchairs or prams.
