Various Shots of the Yorkshire Three Peaks, Yorkshire Dales, UK

One of my favourite hikes in the UK is the Yorkshire Three Peaks which consists of Whernside 736 m (the highest in the Yorkshire Dales), Ingleborough 723 m (probably the most popular) and Pen-y-ghent 694 m (the most technical). The hike normally takes between 10 to 12 hours (though the record is 2 and a half!) and covers approx. 26 miles. If you don't have the time then you can just do two of the peaks, Whernside and Ingleborough together is a popular hike in itself though Pen-y-ghent and Ingleborough together is an option. In all cases I normally start at the Ribblehead viaduct which normally breaks up the stretch between Pen-y-ghent and Whernside, in both cases of just doing two peaks, I end at Ingleborough and descend via Park Fell back to the viaduct. Below are a two sets of photos from these two smaller walks. The weather wasn't great on the first set but there were some shots worth sharing-
