Continue towards Barton and walk among the trees in Barton Wolds Walk and Apple Tree Walk. After this we walk along a stretch of Horkstow Road with a lunch break half way along. Continue downhill along the road with sweeping views of farmland and villages between the Humber and Trent, until joining a section of the Viking Way on out return to South Ferriby.
