Ok. There is no reason to debate any long whether there is or isn't such a thing as paradise. You have now found it.

Addlebrough is only at 477m (the cairn marks the spot), but its summit is on a very dramatic limestone scar, with truly outstanding views of the area. In particular, the glorious views of Semer Water down below from the west slopes of Addlebrough and the fells below, including Dodd Fell and Fleet Moss.

The best route is a circular one starting in the small hamlet Thornton Rust. It is only 481m in height but it offers excellent views of Wensleydale.
