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 or Bolton Abbey, others make their way along the many rivers and steams but they all have lovely views in common and add a little to our understanding of the Dales, its geography and its history. There is no official classification for these Shorter Walks except that they are less than four and a half miles long and generally keep to a flatter gradient; great for anyone only wanting to be out for a few hours and ideal for families with young children and older couples.
