An adventure scramble is a climb to the top of a mountain by the most adventurous route we can find. Adventure Scrambles take place on the hills of the peak district, often ascending the steep sides of Kinder Scout. We’ll stay off the beaten track, making sure to find the most exciting way up the hill we can find, be that following streams or climbing rocky outcrops, and stopping to explore all the caves, tunnels and interesting things we can find.
Adventure scrambles are designed for people who don’t like “walks” – they’re an exciting alternative to the normal trudge along with your family. They’re particularly aimed at older kids/teens, and adventurous adults.
Location
A peak district hill, no more than 60 mins drive from Central Manchester. Typical meeting places are either Edale rail station or Barber Booth car park.
Kit and Equipment
All specialist technical equipment is provided free of charge. You just need to bring:
- Walking boots
- Waterproof jacket (and waterproof trousers are highly recommended)
- Spare jumper
- Lunch
Facilities
Adventure scrambles take place in remote countryside, so there are no facilities there. Parking is usually free, but you’ll need to bring everything with you that you’ll need during the day. Where there are no public facilities, we’ll try to ensure we finish the day at a good pub for a post climb pint! The nearest public WCs are near Edale train station at the start of the day.
