Going to Gorple tomorrow. Is it quicker to walk past Widdop or to drive further and walk up past Gorple reservoir? Or is it the same? Ta

I've always gone up the track from the break in car park as it's less steep, and less ascent.  But there's not that much in it.

Take some brushes, it may well be in need of a clean.  And don't leave anything in your car if you park in the car park at the dip.
