Four free route downloads that take right to the very top of things in Exmoor, Yorkshire Dales, Scotland and Snowdonia.

Cadair Idris, Snowdonia

23km (14 miles)

Snowdon’s southern brother and a great mountain-top outing, which for the majority of the ascent/descent isn’t too technical. It’s an out and back, but this never seems to detract from the experience. Kick off at Llanfihangel-y-Pennant (Landranger 124/SH672089), and take the lane N — it eventually becomes a track. At Haffoty Gwastadfryn, fork R to climb steeply, then break
R again to traverse E then N to join the Pony Path. Turn R onto this and climb to the summit. To return, just retrace your tyre tracks.

Great Pinseat, Yorkshire Dales

29km (19 miles)

At 583m, this is lowest of our summits featured here. But it’s still a peach — a wild moonscape surrounded by heather moors.

Take the road S for 1.5km, then BW W and road then more BW NW to the summit. Descend W then SE down Hard Level Gill. Take road N for 1.3km, to briefly join outward route. Then BW SE to Healaugh and road to finish.
