Reeth village at the start of the walk
As we walked up Skelgate Lane I managed to get this shot of a grouse sat on the wall
Looking along Swaledale from the path that runs along the side of Calver Hill
Another shot looking up the valley, this one from a lower viewpoint
Great Pinseat seen as we walked away from Force Gill Gate
Arkengartdale
Tim admiring the view!
The villages of Arkle Town and Langthwaite
Looking along Arkengarthdale towards Reeth, from the cairn on Fremington Edge
Looking up Arkengarthdale from Fremington Edge
