Description

This scenic loop from Malham offers a mix of limestone terrain, grassy paths and classic Dales views. It begins with a visit to the iconic Malham Cove before heading up a tough section of limestone steps to link with a section of the Airedale Way. The route then joins the Dales High Way heading south, on a rough rocky section that leads to and skirts the top of the cove. It then continues to Goredale Beck on grassy trails to then head down and back to Malham. The riverside path has some steps near the beginning and passes close to Janet's Foss waterfall. A varied run, expect a variety of underfoot conditions, including rocky paths, steps, and uneven ground, with a few short climbs and descents. It’s a compact but rewarding run in a dramatic landscape.
