Dangerous Ford and Footbridge

Highlight • Climb

This ford is passable on foot over the foot bridge but if you're heading East get a very easy gear set before you try and climb the steep hill on the opposite side!

Quiet, quite flat roads between the Lake District to the West and the Pennines to the East with beautiful views of both.

If you’ve climbed up Great Dun Fell you’ll have seen these dilapidated cars. There’s something about them that makes me smile.

Appleby-in-Westmorland

Highlight • Cafe

Great base for climbing Great Dun Fell with great cafes for recovery after you have done the climb, picturesque little town as well.

Rutter Force Waterfall

Highlight • Historical Site

An impressive waterfall on Hoff Beck, just upstream of an old mill (now self-catering accommodation). The mill was made for grinding corn, then converted to manufacture bobbins and finally a sawmill.
It's easily visible from the bridge.
