There is no open access to the fells, which is to the great benefit of the wildlife. However, there are a number of footpaths which will take you into quite rugged country. They are mainly in the area owned by United Utilities. Recommended is the track from Dunsop Bridge running up the Dunsop Valley to Brennand and Whitendale and from the Trough of Bowland road, paths to Hareden and Langden. To avoid disturbance please keep to the paths.Did you know that you can submit photographs to be included in this sites image gallery?
