Simon's Seat is a peak in the Yorkshire Dales in northern England. It is a prominent outcrop of millstone grit on the eastern side of Wharfedale. Although only 485 metres (1,591 ft) high, the extensive views from the summit make it a popular destination for walkers.
Simon's Seat is on private land of the Bolton Abbey Estate. There are no public footpaths to the summit, but the summit is on access land. It is usually reached by a permissive route which leads north from Bolton Abbey across the River Wharfe up the Valley of Desolation. The route leads across Barden Fell, which is a grouse moor, sometimes closed to the public during the shooting season. The summit can also be reached by shorter but steeper paths from Howgill or Skyreholme, one mile north of the summit.
There's a trail leading to the summit.
