Ilkley Moor Cow & Calf Rocks [Google maps]

All CHSF zip line participants will zip as a team at the allocated time slot of 11.30am

Join the CHSF team and glide across the stunning scenery of Ilkley Moor between the Cow and Calf rocks.

Walk or ride to the top of the ‘Cow’, taking in the panoramic, sweeping views of the Wharfe Valley, the town of Ilkley below, and the surrounding Yorkshire Dales.

Then make the exhilarating leap…zip-lining the amazing 270 metres, at speeds of up to 35 miles per hour!

This is a great challenge to take on, as no training is needed – just a little bravery to take that step off the edge!

Registration fee: £35pp Fundraising pledge: £200

This event is organised and run by Sue Ryder Manorlands Hospice, who have kindly allowed CHSF participants to take part alongside them to help reduce costs. When you sign up with us, your fundraising for this event will 100% come to CHSF. Thank you!
