Overview

Walk details: From Burnt Yates we walk on field paths towards Shaw Mills to briefly join the Nidderdale Way. We then walk in a southerly direction on field paths, tracks and through woodland to Birstwith where we again join the Nidderdale Way to Hampsthwaite. After a climb up to Clint  we make our way on field paths back to Burnt Yates. Some stiles and expect some mud.

No dogs please as there may be cattle in the fields.

Leader Sue R.

Please carry in case of emergency (ICE) details or card on your person or in your rucksack.
