England’s Highest Hillfort? The Ancient Secrets of Ingleborough

I climbed Ingleborough, one of the Yorkshire Dales' famous Three Peaks — and explored the remains of what's often called Britain’s highest hillfort.
Was it really a defensive site? Or something more symbolic, built high in the sky for other reasons?

In this video, I take on the full Ingleborough walk, sharing the climb, the views, and the story behind the ancient Iron Age structure that crowns the summit. It’s a mix of hiking, history, and a bit of archaeology — told from the trail.

Whether you're a walker, a history enthusiast, or just curious about Britain's ancient landscapes, this hike offers:
🥾 A challenging but rewarding climb
📜 Insight into prehistoric Britain and the Brigantes tribe
🌄 Stunning views across the Yorkshire Dales National Park
