Conistone Pie Conistone Skipton added to Iconic Landscapes and Ancient Sites in Yorkshire and the Humber by D0c.Col on 30/11/2022

Parking can be an issue but most use the east side of Conistone Bridge. It's an easy short walk for the able young an old alike with a tiny scramble to keep the kids amused. You'll love the narrow limestone gorge, named Gurling Trough, just above Conistone village, which is an enclosed passage that is no wider than a footpath in some sections; You'll also enjoy the amazing views on and around the Limestone feature called Conistone Pie.

The Walk begins from the Conistone Bridge and heads up eastwards past cottages, through a gate and along a path towards the gorge which is the direct access to the Conistone Dib. There is a short scramble at the head of the Dib that leads onto the Conistone Turf Road towards the Capplestone Gate trig point. Once past the trig point you eventually turn back SSE onto the Dales Way (not Dale way as the video states!) and towards Conistone Pie, which is a prominent Limestone Outcrop that just has to be climbed. The pathway continues on the other side of the wall that runs past the eastern side of Conistone Pie and on towards Conistone Village via Scot Gate Lane.

The Walk was about 11.8K and took 4hrs 45mins, but we did stop a few times to take the drone footage as well as soaking up the amazing views over the moors and the Wharfedale Valley: Of course it also includes the time to consume the obligatory cheese and onion sardies and crisps at the half way point.

We finished the walk with a short video of Conistone Village with the River Wharfe winding its way through the valley. The walk is easy and ascent gradual but it can get a bit muddy in places after periods of bad weather. Nevertheless an awesome morning, or afternoon, can be had breathing in fresh air and getting away from the crowds!

Dunraven Bay, Vale of Glamorgan (By Victoria_Graholska)

Dunraven Bay (Southerndown Beach), is a scenic beach in South Wales featuring a sandy shore, rich fossil-hunting rock pools, and historic walled gardens.

It's a beautiful place to spend entire day there walking, enjoying the views, have a picnic and for any water activities.

Flying drone is a sheer joy as it reveals breathtaking views of the cliffs, which were formed in the various historic times and are so unique.

Walled gardens add a special character to the place.

There is a parking for which you will be asked to pay £5 in cash, ample parking further up the hills, toilets and accessible toilets were open and well maintained.

Snack Shop was closed so can't comment on that. It's about 20 minute walk towards Ogmore Beach where you will find nice place to eat called West Farm Southerndown Coastal Retreat.

Thoroughly enjoyed this location!

Ogmore-by-Sea, Vale of Glamorgan (By Victoria_Graholska)

Beautiful spot for flying and after a long research to make sure it's safe and legal I have decided to give it a go. There is so much more to see in this location including walking all the way up to the Ogmore Castle - and we went there before just without a drone and in another direction you will find a Dunraven Bay with a castle (or a footprint of the castle) I'm not too sure as we didn't get past the parking gate due to only cash accepted.
Parking is available and the earlier you arrive the better

Conderton Camp, Wychavon (By gasbag43)

If you are searching for an eye-catching blend of ancient history and sweeping English countryside, Conderton Camp on the southern slopes of Bredon Hill in Worcestershire is worth exploring


Dating back to the Middle Iron Age, Conderton Camp is a small oval hillfort set upon an elevated spur. From ground level, its historical contours can be easy to miss, but sending a drone up transforms the view. The aerial perspective brings the distinct oval earthworks and ancient rampart boundaries into focus. Surrounded by golden harvest fields and framed by a lush belt of mature trees, the site offers an impressive contrast of colours and textures during the summer months.

The drone-view reveals intricate earthwork outlines and field patterns that remain largely invisible from the footpaths. Sitting high on the flanks of Bredon Hill, the location rewards you with vast, uninterrupted 360-degree views across the Vale of Evesham and the surrounding Cotswold landscape.

The dramatic contrast between open fields, drystone boundary walls, and dense green tree lines provides brilliant leading lines for both photography and smooth video passes.

Whether you are capturing wide panoramas or tracking historical earthworks, Conderton Camp is a rewarding spot for any drone pilot.
