Pendletonのおすすめツーリングルート

This is marked as an intermediate walk which, in the main is accurate. The walk starts with a steep incline, well covered in the walk description. What is less documented is the subsequent decent which can be challenging for the novice/ intermediate walker. The path down is narrow and the potential fall severe. Please be aware. Other than that, the walk offers wonderful views after the initial climb and relatively sedate walk after decent.

The actual centre of the British Isles is roughly 4 miles from the village but it is a pretty village to visit on the banks of the River Hodder.

Excellent sandwiches, pies an coffee with outdoor seating.

🌿 The village is a gateway to stunning routes like the Trough of Bowland, Whin Fell, and along the River Dunsop. It’s perfect for peaceful countryside walks 📍 A phone box in the village marks the “exact center” of the United Kingdom, as determined by the Ordnance Survey. ☕ Puddleducks Café is great to grab a coffee and/or cakes at the start or end of your walk 🦌 The area is rich in wildlife, including deer, birds of prey, and rare wading birds, making it great for nature lovers. 🚴‍♂️ Also great pit-stop for cyclists heading through the Forest of Bowland’s quiet lanes and rolling hills

A traditional village pub. Very down to earth with outdoor seating in the summer. Serves home-made food and a good selection of ales. Whalley has been under media-spotlight recently as it boasts a large range of pubs, bars and restaurants. This has brought an unexpected tourism industry that is not always welcome. As groups of people visit at the week-ends for pub-crawls and other antics. The Dog Inn remains a very local pub. And won't tolerate that type of behavior. But well-behaved muddy paws and boots are welcome.

Nice place for a stop, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, coffee, cake and hot options.

A very quiet road with a good path. Stunning scenery on both sides. I enjoyed the piece and quiet 🤫

April 2024 - The road from Dunsop Bridge to Slaidburn is in a quite bad state, with big potholes. Okay if you're on your own, and alert, but potentially dangerous for a group riding at pace.
