Speeding up the M6, in Lancashire, it’s too easy to miss the magical Forest of Bowland, with its steep, wooded valleys, high moorland and grit stone fells. It’s wild. From Beacon Fell Country Park, see across Morecambe Bay, then marvel at the Trough of Bowland, the most iconic stretch of countryside in Lancashire. Visit the ancient castles of the Lune Valley on your way to the grand houses of Browsholme and Leagram. The wilderness wins during the day. At night, navigate the galaxy from one of five Dark Sky Discovery Sites.
