Overview

We’ll walk though the small town of Earby, following a beck and passing the historic YHA and its nearby waterfall.  We follow a farm track and walk through fields to reach the moors overlooking Elslack Reservoir before following the Pennine Way down into the pretty village of Lothersdale. We'll then head back on a lower level to our starting point. There are great views to be had on a good day and the terrain is a mixture of moorland, woods and green fields.

The tracks can be muddy so please wear good shoes or boots.
