22nd October 2011 - Attermire Scar & Catrigg Force
Walk Details
Distance walked: 8.9 miles
Total ascent: 1868 ft
OS map used: OL2 - Yorkshire Dales, Southern & Western areas
Time taken: 6 hrs
Route description: Langcliffe-Attermire Scar-Warrendale Knotts-Attermire Scar-Victoria Cave-Jubilee Cave-Langcliffe to Malham road-Catrigg Force-Stainforth-Stainforth Force-Ribble Way-Langcliffe
I started this walk from Langcliffe near Settle. From the village I took the footpath along the hillside to Settle and then turned left at the signpost for the path to Malham. I followed the path until I reached the junction for the path under Attermire Scar which I took and then made a detour to the summit of Warrendale Knotts. After the detour I got back on the path and visited Victoria Cave and Jubilee Cave before taking the bridleway down to the Langcliffe to Malham road. I followed the road north for a mile and then took the bridleway down to Stainforth with a short detour to see Catrigg Force. From Stainforth I then followed the Ribble Way back to Langcliffe.
