Yorkshire Dales National Park
The Yorkshire Dales National Park occupies just over 1,760 sq km of wilderness in north Yorkshire and Cumbria. The Pennines range runs through the national park. Various long distance walks traverse it.
This is walkers' paradise - stunning rugged rock strewn scenery and plentiful wildlife, peaceful open countryside across the fells, friendly villages and welcoming pubs in the valleys.
Nidderdale and parts of the Forest of Bowland have been declared Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty but go and view the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
