Grimwith Reservoir and Trollers Gill

From the car park we leave Grimwith Reservoir behind and head south, crossing the B6265 towards Trollers Gill. We then follow the easy path which descends on the west side of Trollers gill. This path comes out above Skyeholme Beck. The route continues along Skyeholme Bank on to Blackhill Rd (track), to Stump Cross Caverns. From here the path heads north west back to Grimwith Reservoir, There is a total ascent of 1124ft and descent of 1147ft.
