Thanks - glad you enjoyed 👍 15’s a lot…but I’m sure there’ll be one more in you! I’ve done quite a lot now, but they just get a little slower each time…

Maybe…plenty of ‘pots’ around there, so should be a decent supply!

Glad you enjoyed…hopefully the weather was ok for you as well.

Thanks - glad you liked it, and hope you enjoy the walk

Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed it! Even though it is a little longer, I do find this the best way to walk up Ingleborough rather than walking from Ingleton, or the shorter route up from the Old Hill Inn at Chapel-le-Dale. I hope you enjoy when you do it...

@@walks4all hoping to achieve this next week

Hopefully the weather picks up a bit for then 🌞

I'm glad you found the video useful and enjoyed the walk. Thanks for subscribing! I walked down that side as well a couple of days ago and would have to admit it is starting to get a little overgrown - the upside was 2 deer's were in the stream just past the bridge. United utilities, whose land it is do normally cut it back, but with the new bit of fencing, making the path a little narrower in places it does feel overgrown. I probably should have said July-November, until it starts to die away to maybe avoid that path and just follow the road, as the path can get overgrown. They are doing some work currently on the Upper reservoir, so hopefully when they are done there, they might cut back a bit along the path.

@@walks4all thanks for the reply, yeah I prob stick to the left side of wall instead of right side. I'm looking forward to trying all the varying walks from Barley

Glad you enjoyed the video. I do find Whernside the easiest as well to walk out of the 3 Peaks....following the way shown, there are no steep stepped climbs as there are with the other two - for some reason I always feel as though I've not done as much climbing when I reach the top, and I do find the views from the top better than the other two.

Unfortunately I don’t think it is, as I believe united utilities own aitken wood - so in theory you’d need their permission. I have seen a few people camp on the top of Pendle Hill itself from time to time, including one yesterday who was still in bed and snoring when I past about 6.30! Again not sure on legalities of it, but maybe one for Halloween 🎃 🧙

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it! The weather looks sunny with good visibility today, so should be a great day for the walk - enjoy…

Good choice…and the weather looks as though it’s improving for the weekend 🌞

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully this current sunny weather reappears in August! Yes, cathedral caves are very near to Slater Bridge - I was going to include them on this walk, but there were a couple of school parties there when I passed and I try not to get children on the videos. About 2-300 metres before you reach slater’s bridge, the caves are on your left and well worth a visit. If u look on an OS map, not often named but just says quarries(disused).

@@walks4all Thanks very much. Fingers crossed for an improvement with the weather.

Here’s hoping we get a summer at some point!

Unfortunately that seems to be the weather we’ve been getting all year, but hopefully we might get some summer soon! It is worth doing again to get the views…

Thank you kindly - glad you enjoyed it 👍

Glad you found the video useful and actually got one of the rare sunny days…there’s not been many of those of late! I’ve not been when they’ve been doing tea and cakes, but if I can find out whether it’s a regular thing I can add it to the walk on the website…

Thank you 🙏 Glad you enjoyed the format - hopefully this constant rain stops and you get some sunny weather in Grange.

It depends upon your fitness level and walking speed, but anything from about 1 hour 20 mins to 2 hours 15 mins.

Looks like an amazing walk. Thanks for your reply

You’re welcome…

Congratulations on completing the walk - hopefully the weather was ok for once! I’m glad you found the video useful - breaking walks down into distinct sections is also always good for planning…it is a long one!

I’m glad you found it useful - and could sit through it all! Hope the 3 peaks walk went well last weekend and you got some decent weather in which to do it…

I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍 Hopefully you find it helpful if you do the walk…

Thanks for the comments and glad you enjoyed the video 👍 We do still have quite a lot of places where we can freely roam and all the national parks do a great job of looking after the footpaths…and councils too (well…sometimes!)

Glad you found the video useful. The steps are quite a bit steeper than the gravel path…but you can stop and have a rest on both routes to enjoy the views! I find the view better going up the steps, so generally do it that way round as my knees much prefer the gravel down instead of the steps down, but you could do gravel both ways, which TBH is probably the easier route.

@@walks4all Thanks 🙂

Hi, sorry for the late reply. There is a pay and display car park next to the start by the Buttermere Court hotel - the postcode for that one is CA13 9UZ. That is not the Gatesgarth one though. The Gatesgarth car park is just over half way round the walk at the far end of the lake. The postcode for that one is CA13 9XA. Hope that helps...

Thanks a million . U made me stress free . ❤ stay blessed 👍

Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed it 👍Hopefully you got your car out ok - I didn't realise it closed at 10. I'll add something to the walk text on the website to let people know. It looked a good day for the walk yesterday - dry for once!

​@@walks4allthe car park closes at 9pm however we got out ok, had to open the gates and close them behind us as we left, and yes it was a dry day an excellent walk enjoyed by the family, thank you once again !!! Barley Car Park Opening Times: October - March 8am - 6pm April - September 8am - 9pm No overnight parking or camping

Thanks 😊 It’s 4.5km, just under 3 miles, and takes about 1 hr 15 mins…

It has a slot on the front that I’ve always presumed was for donations, so I guess it would take coins. I’ve only ever used their online donations page…

Thanks…I’m glad you enjoyed it!

It was last July pre school holidays. Very early start. I can’t remember which day but it was midweek. There is a section on the ydnp website for anyone organising an event to register their event. Not everyone does, but I just avoided the days when I could see lots of people were planning to walk it. The penyghent section I did again the day after so I had the sun behind me…

Amazing. Thank you ​@@walks4all

Thanks - I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂 I’m completely the opposite, I’m well into double figures now on completions, but I’ve never done it the other way around…

Thanks - I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it 🙂 It depends upon your fitness level and walking speed, but anything from about 1 hour 20 mins to 2 hours 15 mins.

@@walks4all Thanks for the reply. I walk every day to keep fit....love my walking !

You will probably be down at the lower end then timewise…not sure on your itinerary whilst you are over here, but if you have a car and are planning more walking, there are some lovely walks in the Yorkshire Dales about 30 mins drive away (I’ve a few videos on some of them) or in the Lake District, about an hour further north…

@@walks4all Thanks will check them out, will Like & subscribe

Hi, there can be. I’ve done a couple of times with no cows and once with. They were just before reaching the road that leads down to feizor.

Thanks - glad u enjoyed 👍

Thanks Jane, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind comments. Hope you had a decent day weather wise for doing it…

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it 👍

Thanks - glad you enjoyed the walk 👍

Thank you 🙂 I’m glad the memories came flooding back - the walk had been much improved since I did my first one, but you’ll have noticed more than me if it is 50 years + since you last did it. I filmed in almost Australian weather - one of the few days we had the sun!! Hopefully, you’ll enjoy some of the other videos…

TBH I’m not sure. Legally maybe not, but on very early morning walks I have seen the odd tent there that was packing up. Where I have seen more tents very early morning is on top of the cove the far side of the pavement and further up near Malham tarn. I’ve also seen people on the flat approach to Gordale Scar. There is an official campsite as you leave Malham towards the cove. Sorry not much help here but the only wild camping I really do is on the Lakeland Fells.

Thanks - glad you enjoyed 👍 For the initial walk I set off about 6.30am finishing about 3.30pm. This was midweek which is why most of it is quiet. I realised that night some sections weren’t great as I took directly into the sun, so I went back the next day and did Pen-Y-Ghent and a few other bits again, this time setting off in the afternoon, which is why the start looks busier. I’m prob a little faster than average walking hills, but if I push on, it generally takes me about 8 hours. Most reasonably fit people who have done a reasonable amount of training take between 8-11 hours to do it. I hope that helps in your planning if you are doing it…

Thanks 👍 The walk turns just past skelwith force at skelwith bridge. So it does reach Chester’s by the river and skelwith bridge hotel. The route followed is shown here: www.walks4all.com/walks/skelwith-force-waterfall-colwith-force-waterfall-and-slater-bridge-walk-from-elterwater/

@@walks4all ah wonderful. Thank you so much for clarifying.

Thanks 🙏 Glad you are enjoying the videos…hopefully will start covering more areas this summer…

The steps are fine...heading down them is it generally my kness that feel a little dodgy!

@@walks4all They don’t look great for me though with 2 meters blurred tunnel vision in one eye.

Sorry, missed your second reply. Rather than the steps there is a wide gravel path that heads up diagonally left from the bottom of the steps - the one that I come back down. That should be much easier to walk on and has far fewer trip risks...and can be used then for both the up and down routes.

@@walks4allThat's ok pal.

Glad you liked the format...and that it brought back memories fo the race...not sure whether they'd be good or bad ones by the time you reached pen-y-ghent! I read the reports on this year's race, walking it is a great achivement, but doing it in those sort of times that you do it in is phenomenal.

If you click on this link: maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=54.5409475948385,+-3.277523463845997 or copy and paste it into your browser, it should open google maps with a red icon at the start of the walk, The red icon is also the entrace to the car park next to the buttermere court hotel. Once on google maps, you should be able to click directions, enter your own postcode and it will give you directions to the parking and the start of the walk. That is quite a large car park, but if full there is additional parking a couple of hundred metres up the road on the way into buttermere. There is more detail about the walk, a map of the walk on the buttermere walk page on our website: www.walks4all.com/walks/buttermere-lake-walk-from-buttermere. On that webpage are links to the parking and the start of the walk. I hope that helps...

Thank you so much. Means a lot.

Thanks - glad you enjoyed them 🙂 Hopefully, if we see some sun again (!) I’ll get a lot more added this summer…

Glad you enjoyed - can’t 100% remember but pretty sure it was cash and cardless. If you are there early enough or on quieter days midweek, some free roadside parking as you head into Malham just before the car park on the left.

Sorry - meant contactless - not cardless. I think they do take cards!

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it…

I assume not too many changes? Hopefully brought back some good memories! Slight change of route and some better paths now to avoid the bogs since my first one.

Thanks and glad you enjoyed 👍 If it is May when you get there, that’s generally a great time as all the bluebells are out in the woods before Janet’s Foss. It can get quite busy parking wise at weekends and bank holidays…

👍

Yes - the stream side of the road generally has cars parked on it and it is free road side parking. It can get quite busy, quite early at weekends/bank holidays and in the summer.
