No but that’s my plan this summer when I do
Anyone know any climbs decent around 30mins drive from Hawes or Aysgarth? There next week and struggling for one day. Not doing any of the three peaks like.

I know a good walk from Hawes itself.
Free Yorkshire Dales Walk - Great Shunner Fell from Hardraw
Not the most exciting compared to ridge walks but its a good hike. Something decent to get the miles into your legs, the only way to get hill fit.
We continued over the top and continued on to Thwaite, through Twaite and up the Buttertubs pass. It was a while ago but there should be enough info for you to google.

Actually had that exact walk bookmarkEd. Was debating going from Thwaite but looked a bit easy. Got a smashing campsite in a wood but it has cost me £45 for one night!

Cheers I think that could be the one.

We were staying in Hawes so we walked from there to Hardraw across the fields and over the fell.
It was a decent length walk when you make it a circular one, you would be doing it in the opposite way to us by climbing Shunner as the last leg before dropping into Twaite
Buttertubs is similar to the formations on the giants causeway.
Make a day of it by lunch in Hawes?
 
This week done 5-9 mile routes of ;
Blencathra
Skiddaw
Old Man Coniston
Helvellyn
Loughrigg

They’re all really good, but Skiddaw via Ullock Pike I think takes it for how dramatic and excellent the views were. The two tarns up Old Man were brilliant viewing as well.

If anybody wants the routes I did as GPX files PM me.

Sounds like a cracking week.
Some great peaks.
For dinosaurs like me who still favour maps over GPS i always used to buy from these.
The Specialist Map and Travel Guide Store
Great prices for O.S maps
