Continued the normal Dales High Way route that most people take from Langcliffe, by walking along the River Ribble to Stainforth Force, an impressive waterfall. I then headed to the small village of Freizor which is nestled in quite a pretty area. Crossed three lovely different types of bridges today before starting the long climb up Ingleborough. There is a final steep climb to the summit but nothing too difficult. There were lots of people around Ingleborough competing in the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge so it was a busy area. Coming down from Ingleborough was steep too, but again it was easily manageable. Most of the walk was done by this time and the last mile or two were easy going.
Very, very hot today which made the walk and climbing hard work as the heat seems to sap your strength, (at least it does mine). However it was a beautiful walk and I really enjoyed it.
14.41 miles.
I went up Ingleborough twice last year - June - hot and clear, views for miles, Dec - cold, wet and foggy - you couldn't see the trig from the shelter and the rain was coming in parallel to the ground. Still both walks formed the basis of very different experiences.
I was lucky to have good views, but it was so very hot - it made it hard work climbing up. Interesting to go in different weather's though, can make it look so different. Couldn't have been so good in bad rain though.
