Carlisle-Seattle would require an epic viaduct that might even eclipse Ribblehead

Park Fell & Simon Fell are in effect a continuation of the ridge from Ingleborough in the #YorkshireDales. This route climbs them on a little known route because it uses Access Land and the footpaths aren’t on the OS map. Visits Ribblehead viaduct too. See www.happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/York...

The question is; when you visit, do you wear a hat?

But yeah, accessibility is a issue - have you taken the Ribblehead line out at all? It's a really good way of getting into the heart of the Dales and some proper wild without a car.

🥳 This year we celebrate 150 years of the Settle-Carlisle Railway! 🚂

Look out for beautiful landscapes, tunnels and bridges, including the iconic Ribblehead Viaduct, which we restored in 2021: https://bit.ly/4qaRzml

🧵The true legacy of the Norse people and Yorkshire lies not in battlefields, but in how Yorkshire speaks, lives and remembers its past. Everyday dialect words like bairn (child), beck (stream), gill (ravine), and ginnel (alleyway) derive directly from Old Norse, while street names

When we were there the bikers as in motor bikes (vs cyclists) tend to race up the valley to the Ribblehead then down into Hawes on Sundays. Must have seen three or four police speed camera vans on the straight drags with them clogging up Hawes rather than Settle as they meet up with bikers from A1

Will you be trying the rail line north towards Carlisle taking in Settle or the famous Ribblehead viaduct ?
