Explore the Settle Loop Anticlockwise
Location: Craven, Yorkshire Dales, England
Explore the challenging Settle Loop in the Yorkshire Dales, a 15.3km anticlockwise adventure with 418m of ascent offering truly runnable terrain. While primarily on tracks, it cleverly incorporates footpath sections to minimise road running, allowing you to immerse yourself in the stunning Dales scenery without interruption. Be prepared for sections above 500m, where the weather can change quickly.
This demanding route is ideal for runners seeking a substantial off-road challenge, whether it’s for serious training, building endurance, or simply enjoying the spectacular natural beauty of the Dales. Its challenging elevation and varied surfaces make it a fantastic option for those preparing for fell races or longer trail running events in a remarkable setting.
