Overview

An undulating walk with stunning moorland views. The walk begins at Beggar's Bridge, where we climb out of Glaisdale through farmland, then head up onto Egton High Moor. We head down into Glaisdale itself, with beautiful views across the valley, then up onto Glaisdale Ring via Red House. We then head back to the starting point via the scrubland near the church.
