Top landmarks in Skipton

Aerial sunset of Comb Hill and Watlows dry Valley part of the Limestone landscape near Malham Cove, Malham, North Yorkshire, UK

Malham Cove

4.6/5 (95 reviews)
Malham Cove is 0.8 mi (1.3 km) from central Malham, why not stop by during your stay? Want to stretch your legs a little more? Head to Gordale Scar, located nearby.

Pen-y-Ghent makes up one the Yorkshire 3 peaks which, if you accept the challenge have to complete all 3 peaks and 24 miles within 12 hours. Most people start with this one (the smallest of the 3 ) from the nearby village of Horton-in-Ribblesdale. I’ve completed the challenge many years ago in my youth and this time we just tackled this one on a circular 6 mile walk. We took the 3 peaks ascent route which is steep in places and involves a scramble up some rocks near the end but the views (when clear) are stunning. There are lots of walks of varying lengths around the Yorkshire Dales, a definite walkers paradise. Just make sure you are prepared for all weathers, by the time we descended you couldn’t see the summit for cloud.

Pen-y-Ghent

4.8/5 (8 reviews)
Pen-y-Ghent is 2 mi (3.1 km) from central Horton in Ribblesdale, why not stop by during your stay? If you like Pen-y-Ghent, you'll love Malham Cove and Ingleborough Cave, both just a short drive away.
