Summer full moon rising over Kinder and the ultimate celebration of sundown. Savouring views from Peak District's highest mountain, while enjoying hot chocolate, coffee, cookies and cheesecake. Together we enjoy the peace and tranquility of this special lunar event. At a steady pace we ascend the plateau, journeying past the atmospheric, mysterious shapes of gritstone tors. As the moon rises, you'll settle down in a comfortable spot while we serve refreshments. We then have a little more time for exploring before descending back to Hayfield.

NOTES - We fully support the Peak District PSPO in wildfire prevention. Hence all our hot drinks on the hill are provided from flasks.

REFRESHMENTS INCLUDED: Hot Chocolate, coffee, cookies, cheesecake.

SAFETY & OTHER MATTERS

Ranger Expeditions’ Kinder Scout Full Moon Special is a guided walk with a maximum of 8 guests. We encourage folks to mingle as much as they wish during the walk, but please do not move ahead or out of sight of your guide. Complimentary photos of your day with us are made available to download via our social media platform. If you do not want your photograph to be taken please let us know on the day so we can respect your wishes. We love our four-legged friends. But for practical reasons, we’re sorry dogs are not permitted on this picnic adventure.
