Limestone Pavement





 This magnificent geological feature is the limestone pavement above Malham Cove. Over the years erosion has exposed the limestone bedrock and the wind and rain has carved these amazing shapes in the rock. I looks great but it is treacherous to walk across. I have been up here in sunshine, rain as well as ice and snow and whatever the conditions it is challenging to cross.

It is definitely worth visiting though and I would recommend approaching it along the path from Gordale and then down the steps to Malham because the climb up the steps to the top is really hard going.

I have some more views from the top to share so if you like these please look out for more tomorrow.
