Yorkshire & The Dales
God’s Own County
The Yorkshire Dales National Park and Yorkshire itself is a beautiful place, hence the name ‘God’s own country. The history and landscape allures people from all around the world and has a bit of everything for everyone. I have always lived on the edge of the Dales, and visited regularly ever since I was a young lad. However, I never truly appreciated the area until in my late 20’s where I began to cycle and hike/walk more regularly. I found my hunger and curiosity grew the more I visited, immersing myself in the landscape.
Below you will find the hikes/walks that have ratings of difficulty and contain mainly my own stories, routes, GPX files and, photographs. Some longer than others. I hope others can enjoy their own Yorkshire adventure like me.

Yarlside & Randygill Top
The Howgills is a range of fells that are sandwiched between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. Although they are still classified as part of the Yorkshire Dales (Cumbrian Dales) and part of the Dales 30. Which is one of the main reasons why I visit. However, I also go for the lonely rolling hills which makes it an absolute delight to walk on.
