2026 Settle Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in January)

What an incredible experience my friend Jacqui and I had with abseiling and a touch of rock climbing at Stanage Edge in the Peak District. Our wonderful instructor, whose name is Maciek (hopefully spelling it right), was devoted just to us. As a plus-size girl who is ready to try anything, I felt incredibly supported. He assisted in every way — even when I had to climb down because the carabiner was too tightly closed. Maciek was patient, provided clear instructions, never hurried us, and no question seemed trivial. Feeling relaxed, we managed to abseil five times each. When I mentioned trying a mountain climb, he found an easy route for me since it was my first time—being a big girl can be challenging, but it was truly enjoyable. We loved the day; although the weather was windy, the atmosphere was charming, with friendly people around doing similar activities. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone 😀 The scenery was breathtaking.

We had a wonderful time. Reece was an amazing guide, entertaining the kids with jokes and providing comfort when they were frightened. Although it initially took some time, both kids eventually conquered their fears of the small caving tunnel due to his support. Reece was prompt in picking us up at the meeting spot and was extremely knowledgeable about the geography of Giants Cave. I highly recommend this company.

Wow, what an arduous day on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge! The weather was terrible, but our guide Paul was outstanding and helped us navigate some truly difficult conditions. His expertise and encouragement were crucial in getting us through safely. He ensured everyone made it off the mountains unharmed and offered excellent tips on tackling the challenge. Huge thanks to Lost Earth and an especially big thank you to Paul for guiding us through three very demanding climbs. 👍

The North Yorkshire market town of Settle is worth a visit for its delightful town centre, but venture just a few minutes away from its centre and you will be welcomed by a panoramic view over it and across the Yorkshire dales national park. The walk up Castleberg Rock is short but steep leading to those views in addition to an interesting geological formation and the possibility to catch some rock climbers on your walk. #celebrateit #views #yorkshire #rockclimbing
