Yorkshire Walk

About the trip

Come and have a go at this classic hill walk in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Pen-y-ghent is rumoured to be the most exciting of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks with an impressive profile and a nice short, rocky ascent. It's a great mini-mountain - perfect if you're new to hiking but you want to push yourself. Start and finish in Horton-in-Ribblesdale.

Technicality

Grass and rocky paths, short sections of steep ascent and descent with some very easy scrambling to reach the top of Pen-y-ghent.
