This comprehensive walking guide describes 25 concisely described walks
that lead you to all of these summits on thoughtfully devised,
practical, and hugely rewarding circular routes, profusely illustrated
with over 200 colour photographs of the fells in all seasons.
Stride
over the universally popular Three Peaks of Whernside, Ingleborough,
and Pen-y-ghent, the Wharfedale favourites of Great Whernside and
Buckden Pike, and the enigmatic Howgill Fells. Discover iconic Dales
landmarks Gaping Gill, Cautley Spout, the Buttertubs, Swinner Gill,
Ribblehead Viaduct, the Nine Standards and the rugged escarpments of
Mallerstang Edge and Wild Boar Fell.
Each walk chapter includes
distance and height, start location with grid reference and post code,
plus OS Explorer map sheet number. Only overview sketch maps are
included, so it is advisable to have either a paper or digital copy of
the OS map on the walks. Panels in a light green interspersed with
route-finding instructions, contain information on features of interest
along the way including at the beginning of each chapter a description
of the fell and route to be walked. There is a listing of all 31
mountains: and walk 25 is the complete Yorkshire Three Peaks.
