  • England: Dales Way Self-Guided Walk
    EUROPEAN WALKING HOLIDAYS 2018 ENGLAND - THE DALES WAY 8-days / 7-nights self-guided inn-to-inn walking holiday from Yorkshire to the Lake District and coast What better welcome to the north of England than the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, the purest form of the English highland landscape, with its traditions and views which have remained virtually untouched for centuries. Soft rolling hills, limestone edges, green valleys with pristine waterfalls and an ancient abbey all feature in our walk here as well as the many interesting small market towns and villages proud of their heritage. Walk the whole length of the much loved Dales Way long distance path, which runs right across the Yorkshire Dales National Park to Cumbria, following pretty river valleys, many with small ravines and rapids patrolled by kingfishers, swans and other birds on the lookout for brown trout lurking in the water. You walk through Wharfedale (where there is time to admire the ruins of Bolton Abbey) and then to Hubberholme, gradually gaining height to reach the Pennine watershed at Cam Fell (1700 feet / 520 metres). The way runs down Dentdale to the town of Sedbergh and across pastures to Bowness on Windermere. Along the way there are many beautiful spots for picnics, charming traditional pubs for lunch or refreshments, and always the lovely scenery of the Yorkshire Dales. Cost from: $1410 twin share per person Single room supplement from $260 (limited, on request) Departs: Daily from late March to early October Starts: Ilkley, Yorkshire Ends: Bowness-on-Windermere, Lake District, Cumbria. Grade: Moderate. The terrain becomes more undulating as you cross the High Pennines and enter the Lake District.

  • Openaccesswalk-Upperwharfedale
    Horsehead and Birks Fell Open Access walk offers a diversity of landscape – from riverside and wooded pathways in the valley bottoms, to open moorland – and has rewarding views of The Three Peaks of Yorkshire and a bird’s eye view of Upper Wharfedale. Start: Buckden National Park car park (GPS: SD 942 773) Distance: 17km (10.5 miles) Highest point: 610m Time: Allow 5 to 7 hours Grade: Difficult Notes: There is a car park and toilets at the start point, and a pub at Hubberholme. The route has sections on open moorland with no obvious path, so a map and navigational skills are essential. There are a few short sections on quiet roads where care should be taken, and the route is wet and boggy in places, especially in the peat land areas. 1. (GPS: SD 942 773) Walk out of the car park past the toilets and cross the road. Cross the village green and turn right along the road. Walk along here for 200m. 2. (GPS: SD 939 773) Take the footpath on your right for the Dales Way and follow the riverside path until you reach the road. Keep your eyes open for Kingfishers and Dippers along here. 3. (GPS: SD 932 779) Turn right here and follow the road to Hubberholme. 4. (GPS: SD 926 782) Go over the river bridge opposite the pub and follow the road past the church. Pass through the small farm yard in front of you, continuing to follow signs for the Dales Way, which leads you along the riverside path to Yockenthwiate.

These are East areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good Yorkshire decision-making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk Arncliffe to Litton Starting point and OS Grid reference Old village pump at Arncliffe (SD 932718). On street parking. Ordnance Survey map OL 30 Yorkshire dales – Northern and Central area Distance 7.6 miles Date of Walk 29 July 2016 Traffic light rating Introduction: This walk from Arncliffe tales you up to the ridge, Old Cote Moor Top, between Littondale and Wharfedale. It affords super views to Buckden Pike and beyond in one direction and to Pen-y-ghent, with its distinctive profile, in the other. After passing some interesting weather eroded rocks and the trig. point on Firth Fell, it descends to the pretty village of Litton where refreshments can be obtained at the Queens Arms. The return path is along the picturesque Littondale, following the River Skirfare. This route crosses the river via some substantial stepping stones but if the river is in spate, it would be advisable to cross over the bridge in Litton and follow the south side riverside path from there back to Arncliffe. Those of you with long memories may recall that the Yorkshire Dales village of Arncliffe was made famous in the early days of the TV series Emmerdale, when its pub the Falcon Inn was used as a film set. The pub is on the village green. The walk itself is easy to navigate. There is quite a steep climb to the ridge and a descent to Litton hence the amber traffic lights. The walk starts from the old village pump in Arncliffe. To get to Arncliffe, turn off the B6160 Threshfield to Kettlewell road on a sharp bend, where signposted.
