Located roughly in the centre of Northern England is a beautiful area of valleys and hills. These hills are fairly rugged, with steep sides, exposed cliff edges and several peaks over 600m. Added to the natural beauty of this national park are age-old human influences, with remains of ancient settlements, scenic farms and villages, field-barns and classic limestone walls. We take the challenge of climbing 3 of these peaks, covering 24 miles in one day.
