At 409m Hameldon Hill offers sweeping views across across Burnley and South Pennines. The walk up here is not to to long from Burnley. The top is heavily eroded which is not good. They need to make a proper path up to limit erosion and because of its high pipularity. Moderate hike with a few steep sections.

Adventurous walk with some great views at the top.
A little precarious walking in parts, so not really advisable for all.

On a clear day you can see Blackpool tower but you do need good eyes to see it, good views all around..

reason for four stars because there is NO path.

Took the chance to take a hike with the fine weather for a Sunday in February. Stunning scenery from the hill of Burnley, Padiham, Hapton, all round and beyond. The dog loved it too! Now to soak the old feet!
