This is a gorgeous walk in the heart of Nidderdale. We will start in the quaint village of Pateley Bridge and visit the impressive Brimham Rocks. At the start of the walk there is a steep climb for first half, but second half is more rewarding with downward hill, but as you are aware upwards means great views!
Mainly good paths but some overgrown and walking boots will needed due to muddy and slippery paths. Some of the walk involved walking on the road but most good path and tracks.
