Kisdon, Mountain summit in Yorkshire Dales, England.
Located at an elevation of 499 meters, Kisdon rises as an isolated hill surrounded by valleys in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
The name Kisdon originates from Old Norse language, reflecting the settlement patterns of Norse populations who inhabited the region during medieval times.
The Old Corpse Road crossing Kisdon served as a traditional path for transporting deceased individuals to consecrated burial grounds in neighboring parishes.
Multiple access points to Kisdon exist from the villages of Muker, Thwaite, and Keld, with a network of paths leading to the summit plateau.
The isolation of Kisdon resulted from glacial processes that redirected the River Swale, creating a deep gorge and separating the hill from adjacent elevations.
