  1. Step 1: Before you set off, it’s important to know that phone signal in the area can be non-existent, so you’ll want to use offline mode for this walk.

  2. Step 2: If you plan to go further than the top of Jacob’s Ladder and on to Kinder Plateau, you’ll need an OS map & compass. The terrain & weather conditions can be challenging & it can be easy to get lost.

  3. Step 3: However, the first section is fairly easy & mostly flat, with a steep but not-too-tough climb up Jacob’s Ladder for some wonderful views. It’s perfect for a longer walk with the dog and keen kids!
