High Cup Nick is a classic U-shaped valley high on the western flanks of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
A deep chasm on the Pennine fellside, this famous nick is a dramatic geological formation at the top of High Cup Gill and part of the well-known Whin Sill, and overlooks the best glaciated valley in Northern England.
Here you can see the gray-blue dolerite crags, which also form High Force and Cauldron Snout.
