Ilkley Moor is a part of Rombalds Moor, the moorland between Ilkley and Keighley in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom. The bleak peat bogs rise to 402 m (1,319 ft) above sea level.
It is famous as the inspiration for the Yorkshire county anthem "On Ilkla Moor Baht'at".
To the north, where the moor drops steeply down towards the town of Ilkley, are two rock climbing areas: Rocky Valley and Ilkley Quarry. The latter is the site of the Cow and Calf, two enormous boulders of millstone grit.
