Stayed at Ingleton YH the night before, started at 08:20am parking on tne B6255, up to Ingleborough then across to Simon Fell back at the car for 11:00am. 
 
One of the least enjoyable hikes, the path is almost entirely made up of large flagstones and theres a long wooden broadwalk to save folk getting their feet wet over a bog. I didn't appreicate its part of the Yorkshire Dales Three Peaks Challegne and was overrun with charity walks. By no means a wild place anymore, truly horrible. | chillyman8 | 16/09/2023 |

Low cloud first thing to the extent that I managed to lose the path from near the Hill Inn in that vague grassy section early on! Having lost it decided to forget the Ingleborough path and opted for a directissimo. Worked out well, easy going to join ridge abut 200 metres east of the eastern wall/path that takes you directly to the summit. Continued on that line to join the normal route back to near the Hill Inn. | dickscroop | 28/01/2022 |

From Gauber via Park Fell in wind & rain. | agentmancuso | 13/10/2021 |
Parked just north of Gauber. Good path up Park Fell and on to Simon Fell. Three hours up and down. Grand morning and fine viewpoint although summit highly unspectacular. | Campbell Singer | 05/08/2021 |

Ingleborough from Ribblehead, visiting Park Fell, Simon Fell North Top, Simon Fell and Ingleborough itself. A nice covering of powdery snow with some icy tracks near the summit, making crampons or microspikes beneficial. A great winter walk! 13km with 600m ascent in 4 hours.
