Wensleydale Creamery and Hawes Market

Highlight • Settlement

Here's where they make proper Yorkshire Wensleydale cheese, so you can go into the visitors centre and explore their 'cheese experience' if you're interested. Alternatively, go to the shop and cafe for a quick sit-down. The cafe is open daily from 9:00am to 3.30pm, and has beautiful views from its huge windows, as well as a great cheese-y menu.

Descent With Views of Ingleborough

Highlight • Cycleway

Brilliant doubletrack descent off of the Roman Cam High Road heading West, down to Blea Moor Road. This is part of the Pennine Bridleway and Great North Trail, and for good reason! Enjoy.
