This walk is part of an Area Camp weekend. All Ramblers members are welcome, but if you're not on the camp, please let us know you're coming the day before so that we can expect you.

From Muker village we take the track to Hill Top, then bridleway along Muker Side, descent via Appletree Thwaite, to Scar House Force then Thwaite village. We'll then make a circuit of Thwaite including a small waterfall. Refreshments available in Thwaite. The return by path via Usha Gap back to Muker.
