The Yorkshire Dales is an area of outstanding natural beauty and at its heart lie the fast-flowing rivers, the Ure and the Swale, that have carved out the spectacular scenery that we see today.

This walk takes in what are, for me, some of the highlights of the Dales: ‘horsey’ Middleham, elegant Richmond, beautiful Aysgarth Falls and brooding Castle Bolton.

This varied walk leads between Middleham, with its historic castle and horse-racing stables, and the market town of Richmond. En route, you walk past the mighty castles that stand guard over a rich landscape of traditional stone villages and verdant slopes criss-crossed by the dry-stone walls so characteristic of the Dales.
