Lovely scenery. A great view from the trig on the summit. Lots of caves to explore around this area too, including this one at Warrendale Knotts.
A great loop hike from town. Beautiful views in a windswept desolate landscape akin to Wuthering Heights. The climb up and down is challenging and gets the heart pumping but the landscape views are worth it! A pint downtown afterwards is well deserved! - tourist from San Francisco
Warrendale Knotts and Attamire Scar. Fab walk up from Settle great view from the trig point and great caves to explore.
Quiet wee spot for exploring, just off the Dales High Way
Truly off the beaten path. Great views though. There's an easy mode and a hard mode to this climb. The hard mode is a fairly steep climb up a grass hill one side. The easy mode is a gentle climb up the hill, on the other side
