Coverdale is beautiful & quiet. Either direction is thoroughly enjoyable. From Kettlewell you have the obvious challenge of Park Rash to overcome. From the East you have the prevailing wind in your face. It can be very, very strong. I swear there is a Venturi effect!

If you are nearing Middleham around midday, expect to see dozens of racehorses returning from the gallops. Please take care & be patient if necessary.

Beautiful and quiet with little traffic - just as well if you’re descending as the road is tight and winding with ample blind bends approached at speed!
