A festive walk on the Dales Way footpath by the River Wharfe from Burnsall to Grassington.

We’ve had some great days out walking in 2019 and we’re rounding off the year with a cracker!

Date: Sunday 8th December 2019

This lovely low level walk will take us along the Dales Way footpath by the River Wharfe from Burnsall via Linton Falls to the pretty market town of Grassington. When we reach Grassington you will have free time to explore the annual Dickensian Christmas market, drink mulled wine, buy local produce and enjoy the street entertainment before we head back along the river to Burnsall.

We aim to be back at the car park for approximately 3.00pm. Ensure you bring plenty of clothing to keep you warm and some spending money for Christmas shopping. Oh, and why not bring your Christmas hat?!
