Moderate 10 miles / 16.1 km
We will walk along the river for a couple of miles and then cross the bridge @ Bolton Abbey to start climbing through valley of desolation up to the summit of Simon's seat where we will have lunch.
strenuous in parts
Please note there is a very steep descent down back to the river.
We will hopefully stop for a drink @ a cafe in Howgills about a mile before the finish.
Barden Bridge -- heading north on the B6160 you turn right just past Barden Tower - follow the sign to Appletreewick & Pateley Bridge. The bridge is just a minute or two further on. Just over the bridge on the left is a car park & sometimes a field on the right is opened up..
This is a circular walk
If the field car park isn't open then parking can be limited so please car share if you can. This link shows you the meeting point.
