Geocache Description:


Number 9 in a series of caches celebrating the classified climbs of the Tour de France's visit to Yorkshire, and the Tour de Yorkshire. All the caches are at the top of climbs either into or out of Wharfedale. They're ideal for visiting by bike but all can be accessed by motorised transport, just remember that by the nature of the location they are close to sometimes busy roads, so please take care when finding.

The Cote de Park Rash was the highest and toughest climb of Stage 4 of both the 2018 and 2019 Men's Tour de Yorkshire. It's one of the toughest climbs of the Dales, at it's steepest it gets close to 30%, and it's made worse by the steepest wall being visible for some way as you ride up the valley. Even after conquering that there's still a long way to the top with lots of double digit gradient.
