Overview

A coach trip to Grassington - a picturesque North Yorkshire village situated on the Dales Way. There will be two walks - one of aproximately 8.5 miles and the other 5 miles. The longer walk will begin alongside the River Wharfe, through woodland, then follows a quiet road to Conistone where we pick up an uphill stony track to join the Dales Way. From there, it's an open pleasant walk back to Grassington on a good wide path with glorious views. The shorter walk links no less than four of the Dales' most picturesque villages - Grassington, Threshfield, Thorpe and Linton. Also, should you wish, the walk offers the chance to visit one of the Dales' most historic churches. 

Grassington offers a variety of Cafes, Pubs and shops.
