Round Hill

Standing at 396 metres, this modest West Yorkshire summit offers proper fell walking without the crowds you'd find on the more famous Yorkshire peaks. The climb from Keighley takes about an hour through moorland that's wonderfully wild but never intimidating - perfect for families with older children who fancy a proper walk. Views from the top stretch across the Worth Valley and beyond to the Pennines on clear days, though don't expect dramatic cliff-edge vistas. What you get instead is that satisfying sense of being properly up somewhere, with the mill towns spread out below looking surprisingly small. The path can be boggy after rain, so decent boots are essential. Walkers staying at nearby parks like Moor Valley Country Park or Esholt Holiday Caravan Park will find it's an excellent leg-stretcher that doesn't demand a full day. Local knowledge helps here - the route isn't always obvious and there's precious little signage once you leave the main paths. Best tackled in decent weather when the views justify the effort. Allow two to three hours for the round trip, and bring a proper map. It's the sort of hill that rewards the effort without punishing beginners, though teenagers might grumble about the lack of drama compared to the Lake District peaks they've seen on Instagram.
