Ribblehead Viaduct is one of Yorkshire's most iconic sights. The viaduct's superb positioning between the Three Peaks makes it a photographer's dream and a delightful place to take in the scenery.

The viaduct is 1,312 foot (400 m) long with 24 arches spanning across Batty Moss. Built between 1870 and 1874, approximately 1,000 labourers worked on its construction.

Parking is close by and free alongside the road. From there it is only a short walk to the viaduct.

Routes for all ages and mobility. Low level routes around the viaduct and can easily be incorporated as part of a longer route to the various trig points in the area

Can get very windy along the top.

If you are hiking up Whernside, then seeing this at the start of the hike on a sky blue day puts you in the right mood for the rest of the day. It is a magnificent structure, eye-catching to say the least, and no wonder it is one of Yorkshire's iconic must-see things. To see it on the way back, when the light has changed, just puts the icing on the cake.
