Walking Meet - Saturday 23rd Sept - Ingleborough

Post by Alice »

Hello,

The walking meets are back and we're heading to Ingleborough in the beautiful Dales to kick off our autumnal day walking meets!

Saturday 23rd September - meet at 10am at St James Church, Clapham -> https://maps.app.goo.gl/x6CHr6hcwf4YUk439

There is free street parking on Church Avenue, or paid parking in the Clapham National Park car park here -> https://maps.app.goo.gl/Gi4r3eRWes9PgP3i6

The route will be around 17km / 11 miles

From St James Church we'll head north on the bridleway to Trow Gill. We'll then head up to Little Ingleborough and on to the summit of Ingleborough. Having admired the view (and had a snack or two!) we'll walk down to the east towards the limestone pavements. Once in the bottom of the valley we'll pick up the path heading south/south-west, back along the valley floor to Clapham, passing through Long Scar on the way. We'll stop for lunch at an appropriate point and end the day with a drink at the pub :)

If anyone would like to extend the walk it is possible to take in Crummack Dale on the way back instead of heading along the valley bottom! Do bring your own map if you would like to do this as the main group route won't be taking this in this time.

The pace will be steady so everyone is welcome on this walk. For those new to the club, please ensure you have completed the online membership form before coming. If you've never been on a walking meet and have been wondering what they're like, why not come along and find out! You will need: sturdy boots, appropriate clothing for a day in the hills, a packed lunch.

If you would like to attend please post below where you are coming from and if you can offer or require a lift - car sharing is strongly encouraged for this meet.

Really looking forward to it!

I should be there. I'm coming from Burley Park in Leeds. I can offer a lift to one, maybe two people in my Nissan Micra 😆

I'm leading a meet for the CC based just outside Clapham, so, if you're hitting the pub post-walk - let me know as I'm likely in the area.

Cheers,

JR.
