We are the Midlife Hikers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A pretty circular walk in the Yorkshire Wolds. We start in the village of Thixendale and make our way out of the village along the Chalkland way. We make our way through rolling countryside to the deserted medieval village Wharram Percy where we will stop for lunch. We have a small climb out of Wharram Percy where we then pick up the Yorkshire Wolds ways back to Thixendale.
There are some short steep ups and down along this route but we will take them at a steady pace and enjoy the views whilst we catch our breath!
🅿️ On-street parking near the church – please be considerate of local residents, and consider car-sharing where possible
🐶 Dogs are welcome, but must be kept on a lead at all times. It is very likely that we will be passing through a couple of fields that normally have cattle in them
🍺 Unfortunately there are no longer refreshments available after the walk in Thixendale but for those who wish to visit a pub afterwards, we can make our way to Fridaythorpe which is a few minutes drive away
Midlife Hikers is part of the Ramblers and our walks are led by volunteers. Non-members are welcome to try us out for free for up to 3 walks but then we ask you to join the Ramblers
