Itinerary description
|
The Yorkshire Dales (also known as The Dales) is the name given to a highland area in the North of England. Part of the territory is part of a national park in North Yorkshire, England (United Kingdom).
The area is within the boundaries of historic Yorkshire County, although it extends over the ceremonial counties of North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and Cumbria.
The Dales is a series of river valleys and the mountains between them, which rise from the West Valley to the west to the mountain peaks of the main slopes. in some places the Dales area extends even to the west across the slope, but most of the valleys drain eastward to the York Valley, on the Ouse River and then the Humber.
The word dale comes from the Nordic / Germanic word that means "valley", and is the one that is used in names of valleys in Yorkshire and, in general, in the north of England but since the creation of the national park, the name of Yorkshire Dales has come to refer specifically to these western valleys and the area of valleys and hills east of the York Valley now called North York Moors by the national park created there.
The Lake District, also known as The Lakes, or Lakeland, is a rural area in northwestern England. It constitutes a popular tourist destination, famous for its lakes and mountains (called fells), and for its association with the Lakist poets (lake poets), who adopted the place as a residence and source of inspiration in the early nineteenth century.

Los Yorkshire Dales (también conocidos como The Dales) es el nombre que se le da a un área de tierras altas, en el Norte de Inglaterra. Parte del territorio forma parte de un parque nacional en North Yorkshire, Inglaterra (Reino Unido).
La zona queda dentro de los límites del condado histórico de Yorkshire, aunque se extiende sobre los condados ceremoniales de North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire y Cumbria.
The Dales es una serie de valles fluviales y los montes entre ellos, que se alzan desde el Valle de York hacia el oeste hasta las cumbres de las montañas de la principal vertiende penina. en algunos lugares la zona de Dales se extiende incluso hacia el oeste cruzando la vertiende, pero la mayoría de los valles desaguan hacia el este al valle de York, en el río Ouse y luego el Humber.
La palabra dale viene de la palabra nórdico/germánica que significa "valle", y es la que se usa en nombres de valles en Yorkshire y, en general, en el norte de Inglaterra pero desde la creación del parque nacional, el nombre de Yorkshire Dales ha pasado a referirse específicamente a estos valles occidentales y a la zona de valles y colinas al este del valle de York ahora se les llama North York Moors por el parque nacional creado allí.
El Distrito de los Lagos (en inglés: Lake District), también conocido como Los lagos (The Lakes) o Tierra de los lagos (Lakeland), es una zona rural del noroeste de Inglaterra.
