These combine with shallow soil cover, shakeholes, potholes and caves to form classic karst landscape. • Panoramic views across the southern dales and southern dales fringes. In the western part of the area views are dominated by the Three Peaks landforms of Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent. Vertical limestone • Closely grazed, springy, flower-rich grasslands form a neat, bright green carpet between exposed rock features. cliffs at Kilnsey • Scattered trees or open, grazed woodland on scree slopes and cliffs, with occasional windblown trees or shrubs in Crag, Wharfedale ... cliffs and pavements at higher levels. Several large, semi-natural, undergrazed woodlands occur on the dale sides and a few, small, isolated plantations at higher elevations. • A general absence of streams and surface water features, with the exception of occasional small tarns and limited numbers of springs at the base of the limestone moors, mainly around Ingleborough.
