This spot affords you a glorious view over Maw Wyke, a sheltered cove surrounded by jagged cliffs. Maw Wyke has become a regular nesting site for a colony of kittiwakes, which can be recognised by their black wing tips that look like they have been dipped in ink.

Path dips down to cross over Oakham Beck, which flows into Maw Wyke Hole. Great views all around.
