360 degree views from the highest peak on the 3 peaks trail. Plenty of spots out of the wind as well to eat lunch or just stop for a break, I suggest starting at Ribblehead and going up via the Aqueduct, this way when you are coming down the other side towards Chapel le Dale the views are in front of you rather than behind. It is a little longer, but worth it.

Summit is slightly underwhelming but the views are well worth the effort.
