A classic feature of the North York Moors National Park, this area is ideal for some dry stone wall appreciation!

Built and maintained over hundreds of years, the dry stone walls of the Yorkshire Moors are iconic. From this vantage point, you will enjoy beautiful views down into the valley of Tower Beck and beyond to Westerdale.

Mountain biking

Views right up the dale with traditional dry stone walls & little farms dotted here & there. The place has a great feeling of isolation.

Some brilliant single track through the purple heather, starts at the lion pub across the road. Beware rocks when heather is thick as hard to see at high speed. Some monster climbs.
