Two of the main routes that approach Pendle Hill from the south make use of the deep gullies that have been formed over the ages. Ogden Clough is the principal of the two, providing a curved weakness in the hill's southwestern flanks. The other gully, Boar Clough, branches off Odgen and provides a more direct route to the summit. The Pendle Way long-distance trail makes use of the latter.

Great walk up to Pendle Hill from the village. Can be a little boggy and some sure-footedness required.
