Yorkshire

A large county in the north of England. Opinion on the region is divided, with some proclaiming it to be "God's county" while others dismiss it as merely "East Lancashire".

The main attractions for hikers are the Yorkshire Dales, which include the famous Yorkshire three peaks and several other bleak hillsides. Some parts of the Dales are rarely visited, allowing for an escape from the tourist packed peaks of the Lake District and Snowdon. To the south of the Dales are the South Pennines, to the north east are the North Yorkshire Moors and to the north west are the Howgill Fells near Sedbergh.

Do not be fooled though, some parts of Yorkshire can be classed as Truly flat areas. These parts lie to the east of the Dales and are intolerably dull.
