We are the York Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
York Public Transport Walks
This walk is the one that was due to be held on 12 July and cancelled due to extreme heat warnings.
We start along the Calder and Hebble Navigation before ascending to high ground overlooking the Calder Valley. After descending to further cross the navigation we again ascend to gain further extensive views of the valley. Our descent takes us to the old town of Ripponden.
