Often described as a heard of 'Sleeping elephants', for most the introduction to the Howgill Fells is the view to the East as the drive on the M6 heads north through the Lune Gorge. With setting sun on their Southern flanks there can be few places that promise much and deliver ten fold. Rising up above the quiet market town of Sedbergh on the Southern edge The Howgills provide a 'bridge' between the Lake District Fells to the West and the Yorkshire Dales to the East.

Rounded hills with lonely fell tops, extensive views and rarely visited a rural idyll tucked away in a place that seems forgotten.
