Lippersley Pike is a moderate, out‑and‑back trail of roughly 3–4.8 km near Otley within the Nidderdale National Landscape, featuring a summit cairn around 330 m that rewards hikers with sweeping views over Denton Moor, Askwith Moor, and the North York Moors. Archaeological evidence suggests Bronze Age activity, including a tomb and stone structures, marking it as a site of prehistoric human interest. The clear path is dog‑friendly and ideal from March to October, with a small free car park off Sourby Lane to start your journey.
As a natural landmark rather than a managed site, Lippersley Pike doesn’t maintain its own social media channels or staffed facilities. Instead, it’s promoted and cared for by the Nidderdale National Landscape partnership, which provides broader information online. Written resources and trail updates may be found through the Nidderdale AONB website and their general communication channels. For enquiries about access, conservation initiatives, or walking routes, you can contact their Pateley Bridge office.
