Hebden is a small, stone-built village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, tucked into the limestone scenery of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Surrounded by drystone walls, hay meadows and open moorland, it serves as a quiet base for walking and cycling on old packhorse routes and country lanes, with classic Dales views and a strong sense of place.

Historically centred on upland farming and the traces of lead-working common to the area, the local economy today leans on agriculture, holiday lets and low-key tourism. Community life is characteristically rural and close-knit, with residents active in conserving traditional stone buildings, hedgerows and local wildlife while keeping seasonal village events and services alive.
