    This is one of the strangest walks I have done. Rolling moors then, in the middle of nowhere this epic hole appeared.

      High Cup Nick is the best example of a glaciated u-shaped valley in Northern England. Situated high on the western flanks of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the view from this spot is utterly breathtaking. Here, you can see the grey-blue dolerite crags which also form High Force and Cauldron Snout.

        Great circular route from the village of Dufton. Well worth a look at this epic sight of breathtaking natural beauty.
