  • Challenge Notes
    UK Yorkshire Three Peaks Weekend Duration: 3 days This region was shaped by glaciers many thousands of years ago, and there are plenty of geological landmarks – striking limestone outcrops and unusual rock formations – to pique our interest as we walk. We will also see the famous Ribblehead Viaduct enroute, part of the scenic Settle to Carlisle railway line. This is an extremely tough event over hilly landscapes; at 24 miles it forms an enormous challenge for walkers. DETAILED ITINERARY Day 1: Arrive Camp, Yorkshire Dales We meet late afternoon at our campsite near Chapel-le-Dale, nestled between two of our three peaks. After dinner and a thorough trip briefing we prepare our kit and get a good night’s sleep, ready for tomorrow’s strenuous challenge! Day 2: Ingleborough & Whernside After a good fuelling breakfast in camp, we set off, walking south through the broad green dale, criss-crossed with dry-stone walls. Ingleborough’s stepped shape - due to its alternating layers of limestone, sandstone and shale – rises before us. Whernside, our second peak, dominates the landscapes behind us. We pass through the village of Chapel-le-Dale and soon reach the base of Ingleborough (723m), where a stepped path zig-zags fairly steadily to the summit of our first peak. We soak up the views over the surrounding dramatic landscapes, an area of rocky outcrops and limestone scars, and the impressive sight of the famous 400m-long Ribblehead Viaduct, built in the 1870s. We then descend along a ridge to the valley below, where we walk parallel to the Settle – Carlisle Railway, enjoying WWW.DISCOVERADVENTURE.COM || 01722 718444 AITO Assured PAGE 2 a flattish section! We pass through Ribblehead, at the head of Chapel-le-Dale, and can admire the Viaduct from close quarters.

Brown – Yorkshire’s Tramping Author The Warwick Revolving Tower at Scarborough The Long Drag The article ‘On to Ribblehead and Settle’, pages 4-19 concludes Stephen Riley’s series of articles on the Settle to Carlisle railway. The first one ‘The Highest Railway Station located in the Yorkshire Dales National Park’ is a detailed history of the Dent Railway Station (TYJ Spring 2015). His second article ‘Through the Blea Moor Tunnel and onwards’ (TYJ Summer 2015), highlights the features on the line from Dent Railway Station to the Blea Moor Tunnel. In 1962-3 a 50 minute pioneering coloured documentary film was made by members of the Halifax Cine Club titled “The Long Drag”. This film records many of the viaducts, tunnels and features that are documented in Stephen’s articles. It shows members of the club travelling by train and on foot in order to point out the most interesting structures on the Settle to Carlisle railway. What makes this documentary unique is that this film captures several railway structures that were demolished soon after it was made. It begins with the narrator explaining the history and development of the line in the 19th century. After this introduction the film team board a steam train at Hellifield Station which takes them on to Settle Station and beyond pointing out various places on the way, including, the former Craven and Murgatroyd Lime Works, Stainforth Force, Sheriff Brow Viaduct and Helwith Bridge.

Celebrating difference. charity number 236829 HUwww.ukunitarians.org.uk/kendal U WELCOME to Kendal Unitarians Unitarians are very different We don't have a particular set of beliefs that we expect you to agree with. Everyone who comes to the chapel is free to discover their own spiritual path. We welcome people on any point of their spiritual journey: those who have been seeking elsewhere or those whose journey has only just begun. We believe everyone has the right to seek truth and meaning for themselves in mutual respect, and that reason and conscience are our best guides. Our congregation includes people who are Christian, humanists, pagans, agnostics, etc., or a mixture of all of these! Cover photo: Beck Head © Mike Oram 2013 1 2 Fairtrade Update Our Service on 5 March, as part of Fairtrade Fortnight, turned into what I described as Brexit, Bananas and Bees. It was good to have Janet and Delphine from the Kendal Fairtrade Group with us. Janet outlined some of the issues that will be important to consider as the UK negotiates new trade deals, and Delphine made mention of a film she had seen the previous day about the illegal trafficking of children for use in the cocoa production in- dustry. On the following Wednesday, I was able to attend the Roman Catholic Church of Holy Trinity and St George in Kendal to hear a pres- entation by Charles Chavi who is a Fairtrade sugar producer in Malawi.

  • THE SCENIC HIGHLIGHTS of the PENNINE WAY Discover the True Spirit of the North on England’S Original National Trail
    ENGLAND’S GREAT WALKING TRAILS | THE PENNINE WAY LIMESTONE AND LEGEND: THE SCENIC HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PENNINE WAY Discover the true spirit of the North on England’s original National Trail Steeped in history and traversing spectacular upland landscapes in some of England’s most popular National ParKs, the Pennine Way is the most iconic of England’s Great WalKing Trails. Stretching for 268 miles (435Km) across England’s wild northern uplands, with a combined ascent that eXceeds the height of Mount Everest, it’s also arguably the toughest. OVERVIEW • Distance: 74 miles/120km • Start/Finish: Skipton/Appleby-in-Westmorland • Number of Days: 8 • Grade: Challenging • Theme: History / Geology • Landscape: Type High Hills & Moorland Opened in 1965, the Pennine Way blazed a trail for public access to some of England’s wildest landscapes – hitherto the sole preserve of a wealthy elite. Conceived by founder member of The Ramblers Tom Stephenson and popularised by the legendary Alfred Wainwright, the full route follows the rocky spine of England – stretching from the hills of the Derbyshire Peak District, through the Yorkshire Dales and onwards through Durham and Northumberland to the Scottish Border. Roughly following the line of the watershed from which great rivers like the Tyne and the Tees, the Lune and the Eden, flow east and west respectively, the bulk of this legendary trail lies at more than 1,000ft/305m above sea level. Our shortened 8-day itinerary explores the striking limestone landscapes of Malham in the Yorkshire Dales before climbing up onto the lonely massif of Cross Fell, where the Lakeland Fells are clearly visible across the Eden Valley.
