Tips

December 28, 2021

Hiking

This is part of Southerscales Nature Reserve. The rangers do a great job here of protecting the limestone pavement, grassland, wetland and flora. It's an immensely popular area to walk given its beauty, but also given the fact that the Yorkshire Three Peaks route passes through here.

Running

Another beautiful Pavement (although I am still most partial to Malham...). Amazing view of Ingleborough from here. If you're climbing it from here - a bit of a scramble, but it sure is better to climb it than descend running - the latter might be just too steep for most.
