*Walk Summary*

This Yorkshire 3 Peaks Walk from Horton in Ribblesdale takes in Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough in a 24.6-mile walk and includes 1,610 metres of climbing.

Even though walking any of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside, or Ingleborough in isolation is a satisfying walk in itself, there's one thing that many people seem to like: a challenge! The 3 Peaks of Yorkshire Walk provides that challenge.

This video takes you round the full route of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks walk and includes tips on parking, where to eat and drink and much more.

The Yorkshire 3 Peaks walk leaves Horton by Brackenbottom and then heads up along the path by the wall that passes over Brackenbottom Scar, to meet and turn left along the Pennine Way, which then climbs much more steeply to reach the summit of Pen-y-ghent, the lowest of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks at 694 metres.

From Pen-y-ghent, we descend and pass over Whitber Hill and then on towards Ribblehead and the viaduct. We walk parallel with the Settle to Carlisle railway, before leaving it to climb up to the summit of Whernside, the highest of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks at 736 metres.

From the summit of Whernside, we head down to Chapel Le Dale and pass by the Old Hill Inn, before crossing fields and through limestone outcrops before climbing Ingleborough (724 metres).

From the summit, we descend initially across Simon Fell Breast and then along the gravel and flagged path through Sulber. From here it's just a matter of crossing the final few fields and then passing through Horton in Ribblesdale train station to arrive back at the start.

How long it takes to do the Yorkshire 3 Peaks walk depends upon your level of fitness and how much you have prepared and trained for the walk. The Yorkshire 3 Peaks 'challenge' is to do the walk in under 12 hours. Most reasonably fit, well-prepared walkers average between 9 and 11.5 hours to do the walk.

*WALKING BOOTS* Unless very wet or winter walking, my preference is boots/shoes without ankle support - that's not for everyone though. Having used fell running shoes for many years, I prefer the lightweight feel.
INOV-8 Trailfly Ultra G300 Max: New to me in 2022, now the choice for 60%+ of my walks. Training shoe cushioning, but fellshoe grip and stability over stoney paths - getting many best in test awards.
