Ward's Stone at 561m is the highest point in the Forest of Bowland. The Trig Point and rocky outcrop make a good summit on this excellently runnable ridge from Clougha Pike in the west to Wolfhole Crag in the east. Great views all across the Forest of Bowland, out over the Irish Sea and even up into the Lake District.
