About Waitcliff Trail

10 April 2012 -  Please note that the Deepdale Habitat Trail is currently closed due to fallen trees as a result of recent snow.

An easy access trail following compacted stone paths and a forest road around the rim of Waitcliff high above Deepdale and Langdale Forest. This is a very flat route but short sections may be flooded in very wet weather. There is a fine view from the northern tip of Waitcliff. This is a good area for butterflies on a sunny day.

How to get there:

Waitcliff Trail can be started from Bickley Gate in Dalby Forest. Thornton-le-Dale is the nearest town or village.

Follow the forest drive for about 7 miles from the visitor centre or enter the forest drive by the north eastern toll point at Bickley near Langdale End.

How about a little map - showing start - walk - finish?
