Great Shunner Fell - North Yorkshire 3 Peaks Hiking Challenge

This is the route that we did with <a href="https://www.stage1cycles.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Stage 1 Cycles</a>.

We set-off from Hawes and started the ascent of The Buttertubs, which was part of Stage 1 of the Tour de France when it started in Yorkshire.

The climb is quite steep (17-25% in places!) and so the kids were taken by mini-bus to near the top.

We're a basic family-run campsite, set on a working farm in Wensleydale. Our camping fields are set on the edge of the village of Askrigg, where you'll find a playpark, deli, pubs and a small shop. There are many local footpaths and cycle trails, many of them passable with a pushchair. Many campers are choosing to do sections of the stage1 Tour de France route from 2014.

We're in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, where there's so much to see and do.


#### Family Wild Camping Experiences

We also provide wild camping experiences, completely off the grid.

It's a beautiful little walled wood - we help with navigation (it's only 1 vertical mile away) and we can transport as much or as little equipment there as required by people. It's child-friendly, we allow campfires and there's so much to do - den building, a small river, bivvying, exploring etc. We even transport people up there by tractor-trailer if they fancy an adventure.
