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. (S)silveracorn_alan29/12/2020

Parked at Ribblehead. Lots of cars. Walked down road, under bridge and continued to the footpath sign for Colt Park. Followed track then heading for Park Fell. Good at first but then getting less well marked. Track turned to right and then to the left further on. Now straight up the side of Park Fell. Gets steep and no track. Eventually came to track running from Ingleborough. Turned left and followed round to entrance of nature reserve. Up to trig and then the top (10m away). Collected the other two tops. Back to trig and then followed the wall down to a short row of cottages and finally the Gauber Road. Turned left and back to Ribblehead.MikeM24/06/2020
