A 708m high mountain in the Vale of Eden and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It's a great walk via the ridgeline over Swarth Fell from Garsdale. It's named after the wild boar that used to roam this area.

I think this mountain is 712 ft .I could be wrong I started my route straight from the pub I stayed at.was pleased I didn't have to drive.

This is a lovely broad summit, and one of the nicest trig pointed tops out there. To come here on a nice day is a lovely experience. The summit is set back quite a bit from the escarpment, so there is not much of a view from there, but there is a nice seat to park your butt on for a while.
