Overview

A walk along the river Rawthey, taking in the hamlet of Brigflatts and its historic Quaker Meeting House. Returning to Sedbergh via country lanes, riverside paths and the Dales way.

There will be glorious views of the Howgills (hopefully), 2 short steep ascents which will be taken at a leisurely pace and 4 relatively easy stiles.
