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.

The attendance varied between 7 and 23 giving an average of 13, an increase from 10 in 2012. My thanks to Trevor Beeston, the Walks Organiser, for an interesting program. Challenge Events. The South Downs Marathon (SDM) on 7th April. A re-run of this event, based at East Dean, the route crosses the Seven Sisters and passes through Exceat, Litlington and Norton then over The Downs to the checkpoint at Glynde. The return is via Firle, Alfriston and Jevington - 28 miles in all.

  • Project Proposal Amerdale Estate, River Skirfare & Cosh Beck

    Project Proposal Amerdale Estate, River Skirfare & Cosh Beck

    Project Proposal Amerdale Estate, River Skirfare & Cosh Beck September 2020 1.0 Introduction & Rationale The Amerdale Estate (Littondale) requested input from the Wild Trout Trust to assess issues and recommend solutions for habitat improvements along the uppermost reaches of the Skirfare and one of its major tributaries, Cosh Beck. This report was compiled by Prof Jonathan Grey from observations and discussions held during several site visits (including a rudimentary electric-fishing baseline survey) in late summer 2020. The waters of the Estate fall within the waterbody ‘Skirfare from source to Heselden Beck’; waterbody ID GB104027069250, Fig 1. The overall classification for the waterbody in 2019 under the EU Water Framework Directive was ‘Poor’ driven entirely by a failing in the biological quality element ‘Fish’. All other biological elements were at ‘High’ or ‘Good’. This is rather an anomaly as the Reason for Not Achieving Good status has been assigned to natural hydrology, presumably driven by the periodic retreat of short sections of the river below ground during dry spells. Quite how a natural reason can result in a failure is not entirely clear at present. Fig 1. https://environment.data.gov.uk/catchment-planning/WaterBody/GB104027069250 Throughout the report, normal convention is applied with respect to the beck bank identification, i.e. left bank (LB) or right bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream and downstream references are often abbreviated to u/s and d/s, respectively, for convenience. 1 2.0 Habitat Assessment The following images are used to exemplify available habitat and highlight issues and opportunities around the channel(s).

    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.
