You may have seen this walk featured recently on the ITV programme The Top 100 Walks in the UK – this fantastic Malham walk came in at number 3. I was lucky enough to spend a couple of years living at Malham Tarn and did this walk frequently in all weathers. It’s a circular route of just over 6 miles and you should allow 4 hours to give you time to pause and enjoy the many different views. It takes in a wide range of terrain and some lovely scenery from woodland streams, wild flowers and waterfalls to huge mountainous gorges and barren hill tops; it is no wonder it is in the top 3 favourite UK walks.
