Total Distance: 6+ miles
Total Ascent/ descent: nothing significant (750ft)
It is some years since we walked at Bolton Abbey so we
thought you wouldn't mind revisiting this walk along the river Wharfe.
After coffee we go through the hole in the wall with a lovely view of the
Priory then on to the bridge over the river - you can use the stepping
stones if you want! The walk continues mainly along the side of the
river, sometimes seeing the peaceful shallows with beautiful scenery, sometimes
just leaving the side of the river, until we reach the aqueduct, and
then Barden Bridge where we turn round and start the return journey.
On the way back we see a different aspect of the river when we pass the
fearsome Strid, then on towards the Cavendish Pavilion with a welcome cup
of tea.
Although we are walking through woods and through open
ground by a river, the path is not flat! We will not climb any mountains,
but the walk is undulating, with quite a lot of 'ups and downs'.
