- Dog Notes:
Climbing Pendle Hill in Lancashire is suitable only for very fit, agile, and experienced hill-walking dogs. The terrain is extremely challenging underfoot (steep, rocky, boggy) and can be tough on paws. Dogs MUST be kept on leads or under very close and reliable control due to steep drops, unpredictable weather, and the frequent presence of sheep grazing freely on the moorland. This is a very strenuous and long day for a dog. Ensure your dog is capable and carry plenty of water for them. Not a casual dog walk on this Lancashire hill.
