The Yorkshire Dales is an area of outstanding natural beauty and at its heart lie the fast-flowing rivers, the Ure and the Swale, that have carved out the spectacular scenery that we see today.
This varied walk leads between Middleham, with its historic castle and horse-racing stables, and the market town of Richmond. En route, you walk past the mighty castles that stand guard over a rich landscape of traditional stone villages and verdant slopes criss-crossed by the dry-stone walls so characteristic of the Dales.
