Sat 12th April 2025 Yorkshire Dales day walk to Baugh Fell. IMPORTANT ROAD CLOSURE INFORMATION near Sedbergh.
Just to add to the sheer awkwardness of this walk, there is now a road and bridge closure on the A684 between the M6 motorway Junction 37 and Sedbergh, which means those travelling to Sedbergh from the North or South on the M6 will have to take alternative routes.
From the North: Exit Motorway at Junction 38 Tebay, take A685 towards Kirkby Stephen, turn right on A683 to Sedbergh
From the South: Exit motorway at Junction 36, take A65 to Kirkby Lonsdale, turn left on A683 to Sedbergh
You will need to allow extra time for your journey on both these diversions.
MEET POINT and START TIME: 10.00am, ‘Tom Croft Hill’ large roadside car park beside the A684 Sedbergh to Garsdale and Hawes road, 2.5 miles outside Sedbergh. GR: SD 694 912 (OS map OL19)
