    Jess on the descent from Ingleborough - route survey 2015 Friends of A Dales High Way eNewsletter No 2 Autumn 2015 Friends of A Dales High Way [email protected] Hello and welcome to the second edition of the Friends of A Dales High Way e-newsletter. In the year since our last newsletter there have been some exciting developments for A Dales High Way. The trail now appears as a recreational path marked on new OS maps OL2 and OL19. We're undertaking a survey of the entire route this year and we highlight some important improvements to the path thanks to the efforts of the local authority rangers and volunteers, with more to come, particularly on the climb up to Ingleborough. And there's plenty of exciting new accommodation coming on stream along the way, most importantly at the pinch point at Chapel-le-Dale. We also list our top ten annual festivals along the route, and pick out one or two news highlights of the year. We hope you enjoy this newsletter. You'll find regular news updates on the website at dalesway.org.uk Facebook and Twitter If you’re a fan of social media, especially if you are a business please do link up with us using Facebook or Twitter. Our Facebook page is at facebook.com/daleshighway and you can follow us on Twitter @highwaychris We completed the Dales Highway last week. What a stunning walk it is. Day after day the country opened up new vistas. We travelled through this beautiful Dales landscape loving the transformation from Gritstone to Limestone and finally the beautiful deep red soil of the Eden.

  • Yorkshire Dales from the Vale to the Peak in God's Own County
    Telephone: +44 (0) 1722 322 652 Email: [email protected] England: Yorkshire Dales From the vale to the peak in God's Own County https://www.onfootholidays.co.uk/routes/england-yorkshire-dales/ page 1/10 Route Summary At a glance Yorkshire Dales 7-night option (6 days walking). The full version of the walk. Add extra nights (we recommend Ripon, Malham and Austwick) to ease you in, give you a rest in the middle and to celebrate the end. How much walking? Full days: 15-24 km per day, 3½-6½ hours walking Using shortening options: 10-15km per day, 2¼-4½ hours walking using ride-with-luggage transfers at the start of each day Max. Grade: This route, our third in England and our first in the north of the country, seeks to show walkers the two sides of Yorkshire’s rural heritage, and was designed by local residents and On Foot clients Shaun and Lynda Callaghan. Starting in the eastern lowlands, in the little cathedral “city” of Ripon, the first day takes you straight to one of the most important centres of medieval England, Fountains Abbey, which owned vast tracts of the county before Henry VIII decided that he would prefer them for himself and his barons. The setting of the Abbey is without parallel. The route then starts to climb, gradually at first, through the sheep country of the Dales (sheep were as important in medieval times as they became in the 18th century when they were the basis for Yorkshire’s industrial growth). Linking the pretty villages of Pateley Bridge, Burnsall, Hebden, Grassington and Kettlewell, your route reaches limestone country via justly famous Malham “Cove”, before traversing the market town of Settle to your destination, Austwick village, nestling in the dale below the gaunt massif of Ingleborough, one of Yorkshire’s “three peaks”, and your final challenge.

  • 2019 Summer Newsletter No. 6 As a Pdf Here
    Celebrating our 10th anniversary at St. Leonard's Church, Chapel-le-Dale! Friends of A Dales High Way eNewsletter No 6 Summer 2019 Friends of A Dales High Way [email protected] Hold my head high In 2009 Tony and Chris produced A Dales High Way Companion to provide extra insight for walkers of the route. They asked if I would contribute some background about wildlife that may be encountered along the route. Whilst some sections of the walk were familiar enough to make a start, I needed to walk other sections to explore the detail. After a few day walks (and gaining enough insight for the book) I decided I didn’t want to do anymore until I could complete it as an entire walk. However, it wasn't until 2018 that I made this a reality. Essentially I was setting out to do this on my own, but had company on a few days. I walked from home (only a mile from the official start of DHW) with Chris over the moors to Ilkley, then a train home. Two days later I completed the section from Ilkley to Skipton as part of the anniversary walk, described later in the newsletter. Then I went to work for a week, picking up where I left off the following Saturday with a train to Skipton and 6 consecutive days walking to Appleby. For the first two nights I camped. First in Malham, next in Little Stainforth. I liked the idea of being self-sufficient but was unsure about my ability to carry the gear.

Since our changes last year almost all of you have continued with your membership and we are very grateful for your support. Using the internet to communicate rather than printing and posting out letters and newsletters means that almost all your subscriptions can be used to improve the route for walkers. Our first big project has been to update and replace the information boards. News stories are posted regularly on our website at www.dalesway.org.uk so please keep looking. There's also a members area on the website where you can read minutes of our committee meetings. You can access it by clicking on the tab "Members" at the top of the page. You will need the following username and password to access it. USERNAME: member PASSWORD: dwa1991 We love to hear from members so please send us your views. Once again thank you for your membership. Your support is very much appreciated. Out and about with your Footpaths Officer This year Alex McManus your Footpaths Officer has walked from Bolton Abbey to Bowness in various stages. This was made easier by using the excellent Dales Bus, www.dalesbus.org Not everyone is fortunate enough to live within driving distance of the Dales Way footpath, enabling them to walk various sections on day trips, but for visitors, it is possible to base yourself in Ilkley, or any of the villages along the route, and walk the Dales Way in sections up to Buckden.
