It's well worth the hundreds of metres of climbing just to get to experience this view: the lush, verdant valley of Hope, surrounded by the high hills of the Peak District.

Once you take the long, flying decent into the valley, there's still one magnificent view that awaits you - that of Kinder Scout.

It is indeed an epic view and so much fun flying back down into hope.
