Ingleborough Dark Skies Torch Hike
Saturday 25th February 2023 from 16:45pm to 21:00pm
Ingleton Community Centre
Carnforth, Ingleton, Lancashire, LA6 3HG
Explore the thrilling sights, smells, and sounds of the night as you are guided up the route of Ingleborough by Due North Events
We will start the walk as a group, with a walk leader at the front and a leader at the back. Once we reach Crina Bottom farmhouse, the route will be marked with reflective markers to the top of Ingleborough.
On returning to Crina Bottom farmhouse & Kiosk, you will enjoy hot food/drink and a chance to enjoy the night sky from this remote location.
Those who do not wish to commit to the entire route can stay on the grounds of Crina Bottom by the fire pit and star gaze from there with a toasty drink before returning with the group to Ingleton.
This event takes place as part of the Yorkshire Dales Dark Skies Festival 2023.
Please note that this has already taken place on 25/02/2023
