Dales Way

The Dales Way crosses two national parks and takes you from the rugged magnificence of Yorkshire all the way to the majestic finery of the Lake District. 

This walk is full of diversity, beginning with lush meadowlands and black bordered moors of the Yorkshire Dales, to the luminous waters of Windermere and the splendour of the Lake District. 

300 million years in the making, the Dales Way is formed in the east from great slabs of limestone and to the west where landscapes were formed by the movement of the earth's surface, which pushed ancient rock to the surface creating the craggy hilltops, mountain tarns and glittering lakes of Cumbria.
