Summary
The Centurion Walk is an adventurous 100-mile route around the Yorkshire Dales and Howgill Fells. The original design of the walk comprised five stages, each with a designated starting point. While the choice of exact route is left to the individual walker regarding what to visit and what to avoid, an indicative route is available to follow (see GPX file). Route options include ascents of Whernside, Ingleborough, and Pen-y-ghent — the ‘Yorkshire Three Peaks’ — along with many other high places across Yorkshire and Cumbria, including The Calf, Nine Standards Rigg, Tan Hill, Buckden Pike, Great Whernside, and Plover Hill.
