Shorter Walks for All
The Yorkshire Dales is perfect for short walks. The variety of walks in this category are endless; some will visit historical sites such as Castle Bolton, others make their way along the many rivers and steams in the area but they all have lovely views and add a little to our understanding of the Dales, its geography and its history. There is no official classification for Shorter Walks for all except that the walks are no more than four and a half miles long and generally keep to a flatter gradient; basically great for anyone only wanting to be out for a few hours and ideal for families with young children and older couples.
