It's great finding new places to explore and here is one almost completely new to me. I've done the nearby yorkshire three peaks but this felt like something very different with a load of limestone pavement to play on too. Another great thing about this route was the many points of interest. I was so impressed with this walk! I'll definitely do it again!!
