15 Best Peak District Walks - The Ultimate Guide
"Climb up to Hen’s Cloud, go past the mysterious Doxey Pool and then across the Roaches to bag the Roaches trig!. The Roaches is a popular spot with climbers and rock enthusiasts. It is thought that wallabies (released from a zoo) roam the area, but we didn’t manage to spot any, so it may be a legend."

15 Best Peak District Walks - The Ultimate Guide
"Kinder Scout is the highest point in the Peak District and is, therefore, a popular route for hikers. The walk from Edale goes up Jacob’s Ladder towards some incredible rock formations and, of course, the Kinder Low trig point. It is easy to see why it is one of the best Peak District walks because it is wild, unspoilt and a lot of fun to scramble and climb."
