Ouzelden Clough
A Peak District explore walk!
I take on the challenges of Ouzelden Clough, with its tough terrain, multiple fallen trees and ravenous midges!
Several small waterfalls and then a steep climb up onto the surrounding moorland to locate plane wreckage.
The walk back offered some great views of some of the best known summits in the Peak District.

Pule Hill

Beyond the Peak District! An adventure on Pule Hill in the South Pennines. I follow above the course of the Standedge Tunnels as they cut down deep below Pule Hill. This is a dramatic landscape of moorland, rock outcrops, quarries, ventilation shafts and ruins. It’s a fascinating area with lots of points of interest. One such being The Stanza Stone.

Another Peak District explore video, and another amazing find! Join me as I make the difficult descent down into Hollingworth Clough from Burnt Hill. Along the Clough I find a beautiful waterfall of significant size. With dragonflies in the air I enjoyed this magical spot for some time before following the Clough down away from the waterfall. Join me on this walk in a rarely visited, magical ar...

A return to Chunal Moor (location of the incredible find I made on my previous walk). I visit the dramatic rock formation known as The Worm Stones, get some closer views of a mysterious building high above the moors, locate the ruined remains of 2 old cabins, and explore above the main waterfall on Fairvage Clough. My walk takes me around the perimeter of Chunal Moor, taking in some views of su...

Near Black Clough Waterfall & Far Black Clough
Really enjoyable video, and particularly interesting for me as this is my local stomping ground. I have walked the paths you walked here many times, but I have never come off the path to look at the cloughs and waterfalls. I shall take a look at those next time, I have a drone so may be able to get some footage, I will let you know if I do. Subbed!
@@Glossopwildcamp hi thanks for watching- I’ve subbed back 😀 glad you enjoyed the content- check out the Chunal moor and Hollingsworth Clough videos as well if you haven’t already watched them. It’s an amazing area 👍
Good evening Kevin, we enjoyed your last video! Our tent is on its way, all the way from Canada. We decided on a Durston. Now got to look at sleeping pads and sleeping bags. Alot of decisions to make 🤔 it's everything x2 all except the tent. 😂😂😂
Sounds great!
Good evening Kevin, hope your well? Great video as usual! Can't believe how much the water has gone down at the reservoirs. We had a wonderful time up there - some real highs and lows, we got to meet in person someone who has become very special to us 😊 and the low was we sent our drone off from the lonely trig point up on Kinder, waved it off unbeknown we would never see it again 😂 wasn't funny at the time! So we were unable to do things with it that we had intended to. So now our thoughts are on getting our tent ordered ready for October's wild camp 🏕 really looking forward to this. Thank you for taking us along on your adventures. 🙂
@@PaulandSadie good evening Paul and Sadie. It sounds like you had a mixed time on your recent visit. I’m really sorry to hear about your drone! 😭 but glad you met your special friend. What tent are you looking at for your wild camp? Thanks for watching and commenting on the video. I don’t think it was the best walk ever - but I think the next 2 videos are pretty good - some great new locations for me and some fun exploring 😀
Good evening Kevin, we enjoyed your last video! Our tent has been dispatched and is on its way, all the way from Canada. We decided on the Durston x-mid 2 solid. Now we've got to decide on sleeping pads and sleeping bags, there's alot to think about and it's all x 2 except the tent ⛺️ 😂😂😂.
@@PaulandSadie hi guys. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. 👍 you’ve definitely got a great tent on its way to you! I’m not an expert on camping gear (mine is old and or budget 🤣) but I’m guessing you’ll need insulated mats and down bags. Have you decided on a camping spot yet?
Good evening Kevin, hope you're well. This was an interesting watch and it looks like there's alot to explore in the area. We watched last Sunday and its taken all week to add our comment 🙈. Everytime you say about having your lunch I always wonder what you take out with you 🤣. You will have to show us in one of your videos. Looking forward to tomorrow nights video. 🙂
@@PaulandSadie hi to both of you. Hope you had an amazing time in the Peak District. My lunch is nothing special- just a meal deal usually with a cheeky doughnut 😂
❤❤❤❤
It's a wonderful hill, always windy though. Always had to hold onto our hats on our visits
Hey mate, how you diddling? I loved Pule Hill. But yes very windy. Thanks for watching
Excellent!! ❤❤❤
@@TrailStrider909 thanks for the comment 😀
@@kevinstark4294 🤩🤩
❤❤❤❤ Brilliant!!
@@TrailStrider909 thanks for watching 😁
@@kevinstark4294 🤗🤗💯💯
Hi Kevin...Is there access to Lordship hill from the doctors gate path?
@@atrampinthehills.841 hey mate. You could probably get up hey Clough without too much bother
Good morning Kevin, well the weather stayed fine for you! That waterfall was certainly worth a look and what a lovely little spot at the bottom. There was alot to see on this walk and enjoyed watching, we've not explored this area ourselves. It was strange hearing other people in the background 😂. Now getting ready to leave and head up for a few days, I would say I'm looking forward to your next video but, then our holiday will be over! 🤣🤣🤣
@@PaulandSadie hi to you both. Have a safe journey up. I hope you get some great walks in and enjoy your time in the Peak District 😁
Such a cool tour! Thank you for the upload!
@@TrailStrider909 thanks for watching mate. Glad you liked it 👍😁
I love the views . Just wouldn't want to do the walk myself
@@tintinbyherge no walk no views! And it looks so much better with the naked eye than on video. Thanks for watching
Another great video Kevin...i always get some great ideas for walks after watching your video's..pule hill is a big fave of mine...being outside the peak park means it is so much quieter.
@@atrampinthehills.841 thanks for the view and comment. It was a good walk and gave me the urge to walk Pule Hill…
@@kevinstark4294 It gets windy up there.
@@atrampinthehills.841 it certainly does! 😂
Good evening Kevin, that's another amazing find at least it wasn't raining when you arrived at the waterfall so you could spend some quality time there. I did wonder if those fairies might run off with your backpack and poles when you left them to reach the top of the fall then remembered those naughty fairies are on Bleaklow 🤣. Paul has promised me our first wild camp during the October half term - the kiddies will go to their grandparents. We have been busy looking at tents, but its all very exciting! Thankyou for going the extra mile, take care out there, see you next week. 🙂
@@PaulandSadie hello my friends 😀 thanks for your comment. I bet you can’t wait for the wild camp! Where will you go? I should really do another one but I find them so exhausting if I’m honest. Luckily the fairies at this waterfall were better behaved than their bleaklow cousins - and they ensured that the sun shone the entire time I was at that enchanted spot. When is it you next visit the Peak District?
Good afternoon Kevin, 😅 what a hot week I think it's slightly hotter in Suffolk than up there. We are heading back up this coming Monday and leave on the following Friday so, hopefully it will be dry but, not as hot as this. As for the wild camp I think it would only feel right to do it up on Kinder, not the woolpacks though! I would love to walk the perimeter and maybe camp up there two nights. Only ever camped once and that was when I was 13 and at school, I wouldn't wild camp where we live, but there is something about the Peak District. Paul thinks he will be in his element on a wild camp 🏕 and I know he will look after me! 🙂.
@@PaulandSadie hi to you both. I hope you have an amazing time in the PD next week, and fingers crossed the weather stays dry! Your plans for kinder scout sound great - there are plenty plenty of spots to pitch your tent - the northern side is quietest 😁
Nice one Kevin..you do visit some great locations..i have visited the Knott before, i remember it being a great little top.
@@atrampinthehills.841 thanks for watching 😀 yes The Knott is a lovely spot with great views. Although I wasn’t able to see the waterfall from up there.
Wow This looks great!!
@@TrailStrider909 hey 😀 thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It’s an amazing spot - well worth visiting
@@kevinstark4294 👍👍👍 Anytime!! ❤️🤗
all this stunning sceneryon our doorstep.
@@MrJud62 it’s incredible isn’t it? We are so lucky
Where is this😮
@@MrJud62 hi mate it’s on Chunal moor. If you watch the full vid it gives the exact location
@@kevinstark4294 cheers mate, just subscribed to your channel
@@MrJud62 many thanks for the sub 😁
@@MrJud62 subscribed back 😀
some lovely scenery.
@@MrJud62 thanks for watching and commenting 😁 yes the views are fantastic aren’t they
Wonderful views especially of Kinder Scout, it was lovely to watch knowing a few days after you filmed this we walked up Ashop Head onto Kinder. What a beautiful clear day for you maybe abit warm for hiking 😂. We were watching and saying you need a drone and then you went and said it 😂 you should really consider getting one, we have had ours since May and have got the hang of using it quite quickly. We got some great footage up there recently with it. We may visit this area when we return in a couple of weeks, would love to get close to that waterfall 😊. Thankyou for another video of such a wonderful place very close to our hearts.
@@PaulandSadie hi Paul and Sadie. Hope you’re both well. Glad you enjoyed the video, it’s either raining when I’m out or baking hot 😂 I’d love a drone but it’s a bit expensive for me and if I was to invest in camera equipment I’d probably get an action camera instead of using my phone. I bet you love using your drone though - you must have got some amazing shots on kinder scout!
Thanks for that Kevin..you certainly hit some off the beaten track areas..shame about the cabin
@@atrampinthehills.841 thanks mate. The cabin that I now believe was the one that was vandalised has been completely rebuilt. But yeah. Mindless vandalism of cabins is the reason why landowners destroyed so many of them in the 50s / 60s. Imagine how great it would be to walk in the Peaks if all the cabins were still intact and could be used as shelters.
@@kevinstark4294 Yeah that would be great...i know of several in the Dales that we have sheltered in when the weather turns
It's grim up north
@@doubles6508 it’s beautiful though
@@kevinstark4294 it is. Think I'll try here at weekend. Might be the quietest route
@@doubles6508 excellent have a great day !
Really enjoyed this. 👍 On Monday, we went up Bleaklow from Old Glossop. We were aiming to go as far as Grinah Stones and Barrow Stones.. we got to Bleaklow Stones and the heat was just so intense and we were really struggling for water sources as its been dry and hot for so long. So, this time we didnt make it to Grinah, so this was lovely to watch and gave me more of an idea what to expect next time. Thankyou and all the best. 👍
@@FeralFrolics hi thanks for watching and for your comment. I’m sorry you didn’t get as far as the Grinah Stones or The Barrow Stones. Walking on the moors in this heat isn’t fun due to the lack of shade. At least you made it to Bleaklow Stones which are wonderful. I think the easiest way to get to The Grinah Stones is via the river westend. If you do the walk in the week you can drive along derwent reservoir and park up on the side of the road. Happy walking! Kevin
Hello again my friend! Beautiful waterfall! Thanks for showing us the moor!
@@TrailStrider909 hey mate. It is indeed an impressive waterfall isn’t it? Thanks for watching
@@kevinstark4294 Sure was! Anytime!!
Nice one..i parked in that layby on a recent walk with Pennine Wayne..we camped up on Kinder...The Knott is on my Peak 75 list..Thanks for showing us those waterfall
@@atrampinthehills.841 Ta mate. I loved that wildcamp you did on Kinder and wondered where you left the car - now I know 😀 I saw some great views of The Knott on yesterday’s walk. But I’m afraid you’ll have to wait a couple of weeks before that video is published. Some great views from The Knott - the place itself looks best viewed from the north (Burnt Hill). It looks very imposing and dramatic when seen from that direction. Can’t wait to see that video from you.
Good evening Kevin, was the sun shining for you? 😂. That waterfall was amazing, in my opinion better than the downfall! It looked beautiful and agree that videos and photos don't do it all justice. I've since found this on the os map and would love to find this when we visit again in 3 weeks, but with two children in tow it maybe abit of a challenge 😅. Thankyou for sharing your adventures once again another fab video. 🙂
@@PaulandSadie hi Paul and Sadie 😀 Many thanks (as always) for your watching and commenting. I’m really glad you enjoyed the video and appreciated the waterfall - it really is incredible. It’s a great spot, but there’s a reason few (if any) go there! The descent down into and ascent up from Bray Clough is tough. But if you can do it then the rest isn’t too challenging (although you’ll have to cross the brook multiple times as you walk along the Clough). Even if you don’t visit the waterfall it’s a really nice piece of moorland with some interesting features. Next week’s video will show more of this and the route I took might be more suitable for a family day out (mostly on paths, with just a little off piste exploring which can be skipped). It was a strange experience not getting wet 😂
Love these views. And this waterfall
@@tintinbyherge thanks for watching and commenting mate. It’s an incredible spot 😀
Hi Kevin! Another great adventure, we caught up last night after arriving home yesterday from the wonderful Peak District. Thank goodness you found your phone 🙈 I think those fairies were playing tricks on you 😂. As for those grouse butt's and benches - they looked like 5 star dining spots in the middle of the moors. I also like bothys and old ruins we have in the past visited the Oyster clough shooting cabin, but never got in to sign the book - that's a story for another time. Have you visited 3 Jack's cabin ruins at the top of Grindsbrook on Kinder? To update you on our trip we arrived Sunday and visited Totley Moor trig, fantastic views into the Peak District from here! On Monday we parked at Bowden Bridge car park and walked up William Clough, Ashop Head onto the Kinder plateu along to the downfall, we then dropped down just after Red Brook walked through Cluther Rocks and onto Broad Clough and back to the car park. We have some awesome photo's and drone footage. It's been 14 years since we last done that walk and the children done really well. Yesterday before we came home we popped to Castleton. We are coming back in three weeks and would like to find the Dog Stone at Cluther Rocks, we were really close to it, but didn't look for it as time was getting on. That and the Aztec rock on Kinder could be video ideas for you. Thank you for your video as usual, I believe it actually didn't rain for once 😂.
@@PaulandSadie hi Paul and Sadie. Thanks for your view and comment. It’s a convincing argument the fairies
Were playing tricks as when I found the phone it was lying on the ground where I’d walked up and down multiple times looking for it. I think they were just having a bit of fun though as I got the phone back without a scratch (I don’t know how I didn’t step on it) 😂 thanks for the walk suggestions- I’ll add them to my list. It sounds like you had a great time in the PD with some great walks. Your kids did very well with the kinder scout walk as that’s a tough route! Pity you didn’t find dog stone, maybe you can find it next time. My next video is something special- I hope you enjoy it. All the best Kevin
Another wet one! Really hope you had some dry weather yesterday. This was a great walk, we really enjoyed this even our 10 year old son said "that was good I enjoyed watching that". Those views are one of my favourites. Thankyou for the subscriber mention and thankyou for what you do, it's our favourite place The Peak District. Next Sunday we will be up there ourselves, so will be delayed in watching next week's video, but as soon as we are back we will be watching. Have a good week thanks again! 🙂
Hey Paul and Sadie! Glad you (and your 10 year old 😀) liked the video. It was worth getting soaked for those views! It’s definitely one of my favourite videos. Only a little light rain on yesterday’s walk! 😂. Have an amazing time on your visit. I hope the weather improves for you! Please let me know about your trip once you get back. Kevin x
Looks great. I got soaked on my last one too😂
@@JamieHarding5 hey Jamie. Weather is shocking isn’t it? Have to keep getting out though 👍
@kevinstark4294 Terrible. I camped by a lake, Llyn y fan Fach. I had loads I wanted to film and do but the rain stopped me. I left early the next morning, went back to days later on the next sunny day. It turned out to be worse, I got soaked🤦🏻 I got filmed loads though. Worse year I can remember. Hopefully it will come really good soon. Must do👍
@@JamieHarding5 man I’m really sorry to hear that. You’d have thought after such a wet winter we’d get a break from the rain. It’s not looking good though.
Good evening Kevin, thank you for another great video! We have been on Bleaklow 3 times now, once before we had our children we walked up upper North Grain and over to the crash site, down yellowslacks I think then back up along Doctors Gate, then last October we took them to see it our daughter is 12 and our son is 10, we parked up on the Snake Pass summit and walked along Devils Dike and across. We returned in April with the in-laws and took them that way also. We love the view down from Higher Shelf Stones. That walk along Crooked Clough looks hard going, but those waterfalls look beautiful we may have to give that one a go at some point. We wish you nice weather this coming Saturday, we notice it always rains when you're out. Looking forward to your next one, would really like to see you wild camp 🏕 glad you mentioned it. 😊
@@PaulandSadie hi Paul and Sadie! Thanks for your lovely comment (as always)! I love Bleaklow! It, along with the upper derwent valley (which may or not be considered part of bleaklow depending on who you ask) are my favourite areas of the Peaks. You’ve done some great walk routes on the mountain! Crooked Clough isn’t too tough, just a couple of tricky bits. I’m hoping to do another wildcamp soon but I want good weather for it! And - as you say - I’ve not had much luck with the weather recently! I think you’ll love my next video. It includes parts of Bleaklow you know, but reached via a very different route. Once again it rained! But the views more than made up for it. I got some incredible footage of the low cloud swirling up the Cloughs! Take care x
Can't beat a day of aimless wandering...i need to do more walks like this.
@@atrampinthehills.841 thanks for watching mate! Hope you enjoyed it. Something good (I think) coming next week 😀

Glad you liked it :) thanks for watching

Nice spot👌

@@kevinstark4294Lovely photography. But where is it?? Have lived in Derbyshire and been visiting the Peak District since 1969, but I don’t think I know this place. Or do I? It’s a bit like a place I took my daughter exploring when she was little. That was 35 years ago. Cannot recall the name though. Help!!👀 Peace
Another beautiful video! Such and enchanting experience. The shot with the goat is great!!!
Hi mate. Thanks for always watching and adding a comment 😀. It is an enchanting location! Glad you enjoyed it.
@@kevinstark4294 Your welcome! Truly is the terrain glows with green!!
Hi Kevin another great vid in the bag! We've never heard of the Fox Stones, did manage to find them marked on an os map after watching last night. What we like and find interesting about your channel is that as you state, you go where others don't. We watch a few other UA-camrs located around the Peak District, there are also alot we don't watch as we just don't take to them, but what we find is they are mostly all going to the same places and doing the same thing. It's interesting to watch different people as it helps us to navigate the lay of the land so when we head up it's easier for us to plan our adventures etc... Your on to a great UA-cam adventure with fantastic adventures that stand out from the rest keep it up and stay safe out there! Thankyou 🙂.
Hey guys thanks for watching (as always), and for your lovely words. I do strive to do something different from most UA-camrs and it isn’t always easy to find walks / areas that most people don’t do / visit. Your comment means a lot to me :)
Wow, beautiful place! Thank you for taking us along!
Hey, how are you? Thanks for watching. It’s an incredible location isn’t it? Glad you liked the video :)
Great vid and beautiful locations. Would love to learn more about this norse sacrificial site. Also UA-cam keeps unsubscribing me from your channel, don't know why this keeps happening
Hey, how are you? Thanks for watching. I’m sorry UA-cam keeps unsubscribing you. I’ve no idea why but I have heard other UA-camrs talking about this happening so it’s not just you! The only info I have about the sacrifices to the norse gods is from a book I have. There are 2 rock features on the side of the valley - Gallows Rocher and Raven Rocher where this is supposed to have happened. Unfortunately I’ve not been able to find out more. Let me know if you uncover anything on it.
@@kevinstark4294 thanks, I'll be sure to look more into this
@@Isithaunted666 the book that mentions them is the South Yorkshire moors by Christopher Goddard
@@kevinstark4294 thanks, I was going to ask but didn't want to mither
@@Isithaunted666 ask anytime mate if you have a question. But the book really doesn’t say much about it. Great book though with fantastic hand drawn maps
love your videos, but don't give to many of these secret places away...been over that way a few times myself..never managed to find the Stone circle/ Ring Cairn..i remember speaking to a farmer who made out he knew nothing about it...a secret place for sure.
Thanks mate. That’s my second video in that area and when I was doing the first (my first time there) I did ask myself whether I should be giving the location away. Luckily my videos don’t get many views 😂. I’ve been to the stone circle a couple of times. You can only see a few of the stones and then only when you trip up on them! It’s a great area to walk / explore though. Thanks for watching/ commenting I appreciate it 👍
