Overview

From the Fountains Abbey Visitor Centre we cross the 7 bridges and then on to the outskirts of Ripon and return via Studley Royal. The route avoids the areas of the estate where you need to be a National Trust member or pay.

Note: We use a booking system in case of last-minute changes to the walk details or for Illness, weather or car parking etc. Please book a place by contacting Allan Matthews on 0792 9983493, or via email (allldm14@gmail.com). Although we do accept walkers on the day.
