This unique landscape is home to some very special habitats, including traditional hay meadows, ancient woodlands, heather-clad moors and limestone pavements, each supporting a wealth of native flora and fauna. Over the last eleven years, more than 42,000 people have taken part in this annual Festival, discovering the wildflowers of the Dales and gaining a better understanding of the careful management required to safeguard this special landscape for future generations. This year experts and enthusiasts across the Yorkshire Dales will once again be sharing their passion for nature as they deliver an exciting programme of events between April and October. We are very grateful to all of the event providers for being part of the Festival. We have activities to suit all ages, including guided walks, informative talks, fun family activities, arts and crafts, botanical identification courses, conservation days and practical workshops, to name just a few. You’ll find full details in the following pages. We hope that you’ll be inspired to get involved during the coming months. Leah Galloway Festival Co-ordinator at Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust A special thank you We would like to say a huge thank you to players of People’s Postcode Lottery, through Postcode Earth Trust, who have raised an incredible £2,476,332 for Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust since 2009. This support has transformed us as a charity and has a huge impact on what we can achieve for the Yorkshire Dales. Money raised by players of People’s Postcode Lottery enhances all aspects of our work, enabling us to continue long-running projects such as woodland planting and wildflower meadow restoration but also helping us to respond to changing needs in our area. It has allowed us to invest more in delivering education and training, outreach and community grants through a number of new schemes. A minimum of 32% from each subscription goes directly to charities and good causes across Great Britain and internationally, and more than £500 million has been raised by players to date for more than 7,500 deserving causes. We’re also grateful to H2A Limited for producing this programme.

  • Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes
    Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes + Physical Influences Malhamdale The landscape of Malhamdale is dominated by the influence of limestone, and includes some of the most spectacular examples of this type of scenery within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and within the United Kingdom as a whole. Great Scar limestone dominates the scenery around Malham, attaining a thickness of over 200m. It was formed in the Carboniferous period, some 330 million years ago, by the slow deposition of shell debris and chemical precipitates on the floor of a shallow tropical sea. The presence of faultlines creates dramatic variations in the scenery. South of Malham Tarn is the North Craven Fault, and Malham Cove and Gordale Scar, two miles to the south, were formed by the Mid Craven Fault. Easy erosion of the softer shale rocks to the south of the latter fault has created a sharp southern edge to the limestone plateau north of the fault. This step in the landscape was further developed by erosion during the various ice ages when glaciers flowing from the north deepened the basin where the tarn now stands and scoured the rock surface between the tarn and the village, leading later to the formation of limestone pavements. Glacial meltwater carved out the Watlowes dry valley above the cove. There are a number of theories as to the formation of the vertical wall of limestone that forms Malham Cove, whose origins appear to be in a combination of erosion by ice, water and underground water. It is thought that water pouring down the Watlowes valley would have cascaded over the cove and cut the waterfall back about 600 metres from the faultline, although this does not explain why the cove is wider than the valley above.

  • Landform Studies in Mosedale, Northeastern Lake District: Opportunities for Field Investigations
    Field Studies, 10, (2002) 177 - 206 LANDFORM STUDIES IN MOSEDALE, NORTHEASTERN LAKE DISTRICT: OPPORTUNITIES FOR FIELD INVESTIGATIONS RICHARD CLARK Parcey House, Hartsop, Penrith, Cumbria CA11 0NZ AND PETER WILSON School of Environmental Studies, University of Ulster at Coleraine, Cromore Road, Coleraine, Co. Londonderry BT52 1SA, Northern Ireland (e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT Mosedale is part of the valley of the River Caldew in the Skiddaw upland of the northeastern Lake District. It possesses a diverse, interesting and problematic assemblage of landforms and is convenient to Blencathra Field Centre. The landforms result from glacial, periglacial, fluvial and hillslopes processes and, although some of them have been described previously, others have not. Landforms of one time and environment occur adjacent to those of another. The area is a valuable locality for the field teaching and evaluation of upland geomorphology. In this paper, something of the variety of landforms, materials and processes is outlined for each district in turn. That is followed by suggestions for further enquiry about landform development in time and place. Some questions are posed. These should not be thought of as being the only relevant ones that might be asked about the area: they are intended to help set enquiry off. Mosedale offers a challenge to students at all levels and its landforms demonstrate a complexity that is rarely presented in the textbooks. INTRODUCTION Upland areas attract research and teaching in both earth and life sciences. In part, that is for the pleasure in being there and, substantially, for relative freedom of access to such features as landforms, outcrops and habitats, especially in comparison with intensively occupied lowland areas.

  • Halton Gill Halton Gill
    WALK 10 – HARD: 8 miles and 2,100 feet of climbing (approx) Starting point: Halton Gill Halton Gill – Horse Head Pass – Yockenthwaite – Beckermonds – Eller Carr – Halton Gill Refreshments: Katie’s Cuppas, Halton Gill Directions: From Halton Gill follow the road through the tiny hamlet passing the Reading Room and Katie’s Cuppas Continue to follow the road as it goes around the bend, as the road begins to straighten up take the bridleway on the right hand side signposted Yockenthwaite 3 miles & Beckermonds 2 ½ miles. The grassy path starts to climb steeply and zig-zag slightly. In front are lovely views of Foxup and Cosh Moor. Ignore the path that goes off to the left to Beckermonds, continue climbing upwards (you will be returning via this path). Make sure to look back down to see a great view of Littondale. The path continues for around a mile winding upwards to Horse Head pass. On reaching the gate at the top of Horse Head pass, Horse Head trig point can be seen on your left. At the top on a clear day, looking in a south westerly direction you should be able to make out all the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. Continue to follow the main bridleway as it starts to drop downwards towards Raisgill and Yockenthwaite . Now you should start to see views of Buckden Pike to your right and Yockenthwaite Moor directly in front of you. After crossing the small beck the path levels out for a while before dropping sharply to the road. Follow any of the tracks down to the road.

  • Find out More About the Three Peaks Project At
    The Yorkshire Three Peaks walk Distance: 39km (24 miles) Parking: Horton car park ( BD24 0HF, SD 807 724) Other transport: Horton train station on the Settle to Carlisle line is close to the start Toilets: Horton car park Refreshments: pubs and café in Horton, Station Inn at Ribblehead and the Old Hill Inn in Chapel-le-dale This is a major challenge walk which is long and involves over 1600m (5000 feet) of climbing over the Three Peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough. There is one section on road, but the paths are good. You do need to be able to navigate and cope with conditions in the high fells. Route description 1. Walk south out of the village passing the Golden Lion pub and church and cross a small stream. Then turn left up a minor tarmac road. Follow this up towards Brackenbottom and just before reaching some buildings take a footpath on your left signed to Pen-y-ghent. 2. Climb steadily up through fields with Pen-y-ghent ahead of you. The final section of the route to the summit is steeper for a while before reaching the trig point and shelter. 3. Cross the wall at the summit and follow the clear path heading roughly north. This zig zags down, passing the gash of Hunt Pot, to reach the head of a walled lane. 4. Carry straight on to follow the new path over Whitber Hill to reach a clear track. Turn right and follow this for 1.5km (1 mile) and then take the path on the left towards Birkwith cave.

  • Dent to Aye Gill Pike This Rewarding Walk Has Spectacular Views of the Howgill Fells (Below), the Three Peaks of Yorkshire, and Dentdale
    Dent to Aye Gill Pike This rewarding walk has spectacular views of the Howgill Fells (below), the Three Peaks of Yorkshire, and Dentdale. Start: Dent car park (GPS: SD 703 871) Distance: 10.5km (6.5 miles) Highest point: 556m (Aye Gill Pike summit) Time: Allow 3 to 4 hours Grade: Difficult Notes: This route has sections with no obvious path, so a map and navigational skills are required. There are short sections on quiet roads where care should be taken, and the route can be boggy in places. There are toilets, a village shop, café and pubs in Dent. Other options: For a more challenging experience, follow this route in the opposite direction, beginning with the very steep climb up to Aye Gill Pike. 1. (GPS: SD 704 870) Turn left out of the car park and walk through the cobbled village centre. Leave the village on this road and pick up the riverside path for the Dales Way on your left, just before the river Dee. Follow this path until you reach the tarmac road. 2. (GPS: SD 700 873) Turn right along the road and pick up the Dales Way again on your right, continuing along the river to the road at Barth Bridge. 3. (GPS: SD 694 878) At the road turn right. Walk along here for a short distance (approx 150m) and turn up the small tarmac lane on your right. Continue along this quiet lane for approximately 1km, until reaching Lunds Farm. 4. (GPS: SD 694 887) At the entrance to Lunds Farm turn left and continue through the cobbled yard.
