Leaving the car park on Sedber Lane we drop down to the bridge at Linton Falls. (It was roaring when we did the recce.)
Then turn toward Linton Church which is well worth a visit. An ancient site with many architectural styles. It is still used each Sunday for worship. We climb steadily through fields onto a road and then to the lovely village of Thorpe set in a hollow. It was covered in snowdrops as we walked through. We then head east to another village Burnsall across the fields and styles too many to count! Then we cross the River Wharfe before climbing up onto Burnsall Lane, (with wonderful views of the river ). After some more road walking we head up a farm track and up into Hebden. Continuing north across the road to Grassington we climb a little to Hole Bottom, then up to High Garnshaw House. Here we turn south and head back towards Grassington along Edge Lane then across the fields to High Lane and into the village where we walk down to the car park and can chose where we have our drink before the journey home.
This is a good walk which will also prove to be a good work out! but note that on the recce
it
was very wet underfoot and slippery, gaiters would be a good idea and don't
forget a change of clothes.
