Overview

We set out along the Nidd River and take the Nidderdale Way to Brimham Rocks, across Brimham Moor and then back to Dacre Banks.  There is a bit of riverside walking, some woodland and some moorland.  There is a tea shop at Brimham Rocks for lunch/toilet stop and a pub at the end at Dacre Banks.
