The Kinder Scout Mass Trespass occurred on April 24, 1932, when around 400 walkers protested against restrictions on access to the moorland of Kinder Scout in the Peak District, England. The event aimed to highlight the lack of public access to open countryside, which was largely owned by private landowners. The trespassers marched from the nearby village of Hayfield to the summit of Kinder Scout, where they faced resistance from gamekeepers. The protest led to several arrests but ultimately raised awareness about the right to roam, contributing to the eventual establishment of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000, which improved public access to rural areas.
