Brimham Rocks
A: Walk
Summerbridge to Pateley Bridge
Leader: Ron Wade
Distance: 11.25 miles
Ascent : 1800ft
Start Summerbridge . Finish Pateley Bridge
Recent walks in this area have seemed to be on the other side of the valley taking in Guise Cliffe and Yorkes Folley so for a change the walk is on the other side and will take in Brimham Rocks .
From Summerbridge we initially take paths and lanes leading up to Woodfield Mill (disused) . Here we pick up The Nidderdale Way past Brimham Lodge & course of the Monk Wall. The Nidderdale Way is left just before Brimham Rocks where we take a path across Brimham Moor leading to Brimham Rocks . Here can be found weird and wonderful rock formations .Names have been given to these Cannon Rocks , Dancing Bear & Smarty Tube are just a few . After leaving Brimham Rocks by Brimham Rocks Farm we take the path down to the footbridge crossing Fell Beck, Here we again pick up the Nidderdale Way which we keep on other than a diversion to Tiplady Farm until we get to Knotts . The Nidderdale Way is now left to go up to Scott Gate Ash . Paths and a minor Road are taken on the descent to our destination at Pateley Bridge .
Both Pubs and Cafes are open for refreshments at the end of the walk .
