Walking from the Settle-Carlisle Railway
Walks from the train on the most scenic rail route in England.
OverviewThe Settle to Carlisle railway is steeped in history and runs through 72 miles of the beautiful Yorkshire Dales and Cumbrian landscapes between these two northern market towns, a journey through some of the finest scenery in Britain.
The route runs through 14 tunnels and over 20 viaducts including the iconic arches of the Ribblehead Viaduct - a triumph of Victorian civil engineering.
Our three walks take in some of the scenic highlights and heritage along the route and will include Dent to Ribblehead, a walk taking in high hills, moors, valleys - and great views. We start and finish at the stations to enjoy both the country and the train which runs though it
