The route was inspired by the indomitable Lady Anne Clifford, who owned vast estates in the old county of Westmorland during the seventeenth century. The route is in the area she traveled and highlights a several castles she renovated.

A moderate fellside circular with steep ascent & descents and views of the Wharfe valley. Encounter stepping-stones, a strenuous section along the centenary path & huge Wellingtonia trees. Return along the riverside & keep dogs on leads near livestock.
