This section leads you out of Wharfedale and into Dentdale. You'll cross England's watershed as rivers that you now encounter will be running west toward the Irish Sea.

This path takes you past the river and to Deepdale Gill, which is a splendidly rugged area. The path then climbs and later you can take in the views of the three peaks, Whernside, Pen-y-ghent and Ingleborough. Evidence of the impending Lake District is now visible as you head towards the impressive Dent Head Viaduct.
