Hameldon Hill & Great Hameldon
Moorland between Hapton, Huncoat and Accrington, south-west of Burnley, BB11 5QP · Blackburn & Burnley
A Pennine moorland hill between Burnley and Accrington whose highest point, Great Hameldon, reaches 409m with a trig point at the summit and wide views over the Rossendale Valley. Older kids will spot the six wind turbines of Hameldon Hill Wind Farm and the Met Office weather radar dome on the way up. The Burnley Way long-distance path crosses the hill, following the old road from Hapton towards Haslingden.
Spark Hub tip: This is open moorland with no facilities on the hill itself - the Burnley Way path from Hapton is the established route over the top.
