Overview

We start the walk from Langthwaite alongside Arkle Beck, then head up to the hamlet of Booze admiring superb views down Arkengarthdale on the way. We then follow moorland and farm tracks and paths across to Whaw. After a short stretch on a quiet country lane we join riverside paths taking us down the valley on our way back to the start.
