Gordale Scar Campsite walks

A great circular walk from Malham village, taking in Janet's Cave / Foss, Gordale Scar, Malham Tarn, the limestone pavement at the top of Malham Cove and the cove itself before finishing back at the car. Consistently interesting and varied scenery. ⚠️Please note that there is a scramble up steep water worn rock in Goredale between waypoints (2) and (3). Some people might find this challenging and please do not attend to do this part when it is raining or icy! However an alternative is possible.

A circular route which can be done in either direction. As described it leaves Malham village on the good paths to the popular Janet's Foss waterfall, then it takes in the valley leading into Gordale Scar, returning to the road and up the hill until a track leads to the summit of Weets Top. The gentle descent of Halton Moor provides a different landscape and leads to Hanlith where you pick up the Pennine Way path back to Malham.
