Waterfall in North Pennines National Landscape

Highlight • Waterfall

Carefully footing especially in wet conditions (the path remains boggy a long time) I also wouldn't recommend sliding down the water though it does look like it'd be fun!

Nine Standards

Highlight • Monument

Nobody knows the sense of Nine standards ... But they are iconic!

Nobody knows the meaning or benefit of the Nine standards. They are still cult!

Rigg Beck Valley

Highlight • Gorge

A lovely valley view down the beck that sits in the coast to coast route

Tip by

10.2 km

Yet another of the slightly surreal and moon-like limestone pavements in the Dales is to be found here on the Lamps Moss. Very picturesque and the path usefully runs right through the pavement, so your enjoyment of it is assured.
