Visiting the English countryside is one of the most enjoyable parts of any trip to England , and planning a Yorkshire Dales itinerary is a must. From dramatic terrains and historic castles to idyllic villages, spending 2 to 3 days in the Yorkshire Dales will take you on a journey throughout one of England’s most beautiful national parks.

As one of England’s largest National Parks, the Yorkshire Dales is the epitome of classic English Countryside; quaint, historic, picturesque, timeless and waiting to be explored.

Table of Contents

How Many Days in the Yorkshire Dales?

The first step to planning a Yorkshire Dales itinerary is deciding how many days to spend in the Yorkshire Dales. With that being said, you could easily spend a full week in the Yorkshire Dales exploring the extent of the park. However, if you’re short on time, 2-3 days is best.

With 2 days in the Yorkshire Dales, you’ll be able to enjoy more than just one area or town in the park, giving a broader experience in the national park and the chance to stay the night in one of the park’s quaint towns or villages.

If you decide to spend 3 days in the Yorkshire Dales, your extended time and extra day in the park will allow you to explore even further, enjoying other areas, famous landmarks, and enjoying a hike or two.

Getting To & Around the Yorkshire Dales

When it comes to getting to and around the Yorkshire Dales, it’s fair to say that driving to/around the park as part of a Yorkshire Dales road trip is the ideal mode of transportation.

By renting a car and driving throughout your time in the park, you’ll have the most flexibility as to where to go, how long to spend in each location, and the option of visiting locations not included on the bus routes throughout the park. You can browse Rentalcars.com to compare prices across major companies.

From larger nearby North Yorkshire cities of Leeds and York , you can reach the Yorkshire Dales in around an hour and from Manchester , around an hour and a half. You can also easily reach the lovely Yorkshire coast from the Dales.

A great option to explore the national parks of northern England is to combine a Yorkshire Dales itinerary with time in the Lake District National Park , England’s largest national park, just 30 minutes away from the Yorkshire Dales.

With that being said, there is a bus service throughout the Yorkshire Dales National Park, connecting the park itself, along with a few cities and towns outside of the park.

Throughout the year, there’s a generous number of active routes, and in the high season between April and October, other routes are added as supplements.

When it comes to accommodation, basing yourself in the town of Skipton or Harrogate are both good options with easy access.

If you don’t want to drive, it is possible to take organised tours from York such as this full-day tour or this private tour.

2 to 3 Days in the Yorkshire Dales Itinerary

From serene, awe-inspiring waterfalls to idyllic villages and delicious food, there’s something for everyone during these 3 days spent in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Day 1 – Skipton & Malham

A convenient and ideal start to any trip to the Yorkshire Dales is in the town of Skipton, otherwise known as “the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales”.

Dating back over 1,000 years, Skipton is a town steeped in history and heritage. As an important market town since medieval times, a visit to Skipton has many things to offer, including Skipton Castle and Skipton Market.

Skipton Castle was first built in the 11th century and has since been passed through various notable families, as well as held a major role in many events, including the English Civil War. A visit to Skipton Castle is a great way to learn more about the history of the area, as well as what life was like in Skipton centuries ago.

For an even more comprehensive visit, take part in one of the guided tours that the castle offers. Otherwise, enjoy exploring the castle independently at your own pace. The castle is open every day of the week with various ticket costs depending on the age and size of your group.

After visiting Skipton Castle, make sure to stop by the famed Skipton Market, which is open Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, every week. Skipton Market has been in operation for over 800 years, and to this day still offers a wide assortment of various local goods, from produce to clothing and antiques.

Bolton Abbey Estate

After spending time in the town of Skipton, take a short 10-minute drive to your next stop, Bolton Abbey Estate.

While known as Bolton Abbey due to its location, what you’ll actually be visiting are the remnants of Bolton Priory, an Augustinian monastery established in the 12th century as well as the surrounding areas of the estate.

During your visit, make sure to spend time visiting the centerpiece of the estate, the ruins of Bolton Priory as well as enjoying the pleasant riverside walks in the area running along the River Wharf.

Weather depending, this is also your perfect opportunity to enjoy a scenic picnic surrounded by nature and history!

Malham Cove

From Bolton Abbey, travel around 25 km northwest further into the Yorkshire Dales to one of the park’s most famous land formations, Malham Cove. Malham Cove is a natural limestone cavern formation that’s enticed visitors for centuries due to its impressive geological features and stunning appearance.

Malham Cove was formed around 12,000 years ago during the last ice age and has its current appearance due to the melting of glacier ice, leaving a large hollowed-out, half-domed shaped cliff behind.

Malham Cove is open 24 hours a day and is free for visitors to visit and explore its magnificence.

Near Malham, you can also visit the beautiful Gordale Scar, another beautiful geological formation in a river gorge close to the village.

Dinner at Lister Arms

There’s no better fitting way to end a day exploring the countryside of the Yorkshire Dales, than by heading to a cosy, local pub to enjoy a comforting, traditional meal and a pint of something local.

A great option is Lister Arms, a top-rated pub and inn in the town of Malham. As this is the last stop of day 1, Malham is also a great area to stay for the night, for its beautiful surroundings and close proximity to where you’ll begin day 2.

Day 2 – Wensleydale & Hawes

Ribblehead viaduct.

Begin your second day in the Yorkshire Dales at one of Yorkshire’s most iconic sights, the Ribblehead Viaduct. Spanning an impressive length of 400 meters and consisting of 24 stone arches, the Ribblehead Viaduct is truly an impressive structure.

The viaduct is located near the village of Ribblehead, between the towns of Settle and Carlisle, and is accessible by both road and railway (Ribblehead Station), depending on your means of transportation.

With such a stunning backdrop and the Ribblehead Viaduct being surrounded by stunning countryside, the surrounding area offers fantastic walking and hiking opportunities. If you’re keen to get out on the trails and enjoy the Yorkshire Dales countryside, this is an ideal opportunity.

If you want to take in some more natural sites, then consider heading over to nearby Ingleton and visit the gorgeous Ingleton Waterfalls, which aren’t far from the viaduct. En route, you can also pass by the Yorkshire Three Peaks of Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-ghent.

Wensleydale Creamery

While the majority of famous English cheeses hail from the south of the country, Yorkshire is the home to one of England’s most well-known and delicious cheeses, Wensleydale. The history of the cheese dates back to a style of cheese originating from a monastery of French Cistercian monks who had settled in northern England in the 13th century.

While the cheese is now made throughout the UK, the Wensleydale Creamery is still the main producer of Wensleydale cheese, as well as the perfect stop on any Yorkshire Dales itinerary.

The Wensleydale Creamery consists of a cheese museum, interactive exhibits, guided tours, and a cheese shop. Visiting the creamery is a must for not just cheese enthusiasts, but also those interested in this key cultural side of the Yorkshire Dales, providing insights into Wensleydale cheese’s history, production, and the chance to sample and purchase a variety of delicious cheeses.

Opening hours of The Wensleydale Creamery are daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM with closure on specific days, so make sure to check the hours in advance before visiting. Ticket costs depend on which exhibits and parts of the creamery you wish to visit.

After spending time learning about Wensleydale Cheese at the Wensleydale Creamery, head to the local village of Hawes to experience traditional Yorkshire charm.

Hawes is a small market town located in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, renowned for its picturesque landscapes, rolling hills, and traditional stone-built buildings and homes.

Hawes offers a delightful variety of experiences and things to do; from inviting tea rooms, to cozy cafes, and charming traditional pubs, perfect for indulging in a satisfying meal or savoring a cup of tea amidst the rolling green surroundings.

Furthermore, the town boasts a variety of shops that showcase local crafts, souvenirs, and products, providing an ideal opportunity to find unique Yorkshire gifts and treasures. You can also visit the Dales Countryside Museum in Hawes if you want a bit of historic context to your visit.

For an incredible pub meal to round out your day, I highly suggest heading to The White Hart Inn, located on the village’s main street.

The atmosphere is everything that you’d want in a pub in the Yorkshire Dales; cosy, inviting, charming, and connected to the feeling of the countryside. From fish and chips to a hearty steak pie, the recipes are homemade, homecooked, and absolutely delicious.

Day 3 – Aysgarth & Castle Bolton

Start your 3rd and final day in the Yorkshire Dales in the quaint countryside hamlet village of Aysgarth, tucked within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Nestled amidst the idyllic landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales, Aysgarth is a haven of natural beauty and rural Yorkshire charm.

The pinnacle of visiting Aysgarth is undoubtedly the majestic Aysgarth Falls, a spectacular series of waterfalls located within the village of Aysgarth. Prepare to be amazed as you witness the cascading waters tumbling down the limestone steps, creating a stunning appearance.

Aysgarth Falls has three sections: Upper, Middle, and Lower Falls. The Upper Falls are often considered the most popular. With their dramatic display of water tumbling over rocky ledges, but all three falls are worth visiting for their own unique characteristics.

The falls are open 24/7 with free admission, and to learn more about the area, make sure to visit the visitors center (note you have to pay for the car park) for interesting insights into Aysgarth Falls, its geology, and preservation. The area itself also has a wide number of trails worth visiting, with peaceful and serene surroundings.

After spending time at the falls, make sure to spend time in the village of Aysgarth itself. The village feels like it’s stuck in time, from the small stone bridges passing over the River Ure, to the classic pubs and tea rooms waiting to make your acquaintance.

The village also has various shops, from classic souvenir and craft shops to more modern art galleries featuring local artists.

Castle Bolton

After discovering the charming village of Aysgarth and its wondrous waterfalls, head about a 10 minute drive away into the countryside to historic Bolton Castle.

Castle Bolton is a medieval fortress nestled in the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Dales National Park that holds historical and cultural significance as a medieval fortress, giving a deeper insight into the county’s heritage and offering insights into the lives of nobles throughout history.

With a strong association with Mary Queen of Scots and other historic figures, the castle is an off-the-beaten-path spot yet with rich history and outstanding surroundings.

While visiting the castle, you’ll wander through well-preserved chambers and various rooms throughout the castle, explore its enchanting gardens, and immerse yourself in the historic atmosphere in the middle of the green hills of the Yorkshire Dales.

Where to Stay in the Yorkshire Dales

Herriots Hotel – Located in the town of Skipton at the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, this hotel is an excellent place to base yourself when exploring this natural area. They have a number of lovely rooms available along with plenty of great amenities for guests to enjoy.

Yorkshire Dales National Park, located in the north of England, encompasses thousands of square miles of picturesque countryside and scenic villages. While it's not particularly mountainous, the national park is known for its sweeping moors, rolling hills and walking trails. It is home to the Three Peaks, and has a vast caves system, which can be visited by travelers.

The region is dotted with historic towns, like Ripon and Settle, and there are numerous attractions popular with tourists, including castles, museums and manor estates. Visitors of all ages and backgrounds travel to Yorkshire Dales National Park for a variety of reasons, from enjoying the walking and biking trails to immersing themselves in countryside life for a few days.

Yorkshire Dales National Park is a vast area, comprised of moors, valleys, hills and villages. There is a lot to see and do throughout the park for visitors of all ages and interests, with an emphasis on exploring the natural beauty of the region. The Yorkshire Dales are especially popular for walking and cycling, although there are also plenty of activities for visitors less inclined to outdoor activities, from historic castles to the famed Settle to Carlisle railway.

Explore natural attractions like Malham Cove and Aysgarth Falls, or walk the trails through the Three Peaks. Ingleborough Cave, which has been open to visitors since 1837, reveals awe-inspiring cave formations, while White Scar Caves is the the longest show cave in England.

The Yorkshire Dales is home to several castles and historic homes, including Richmond Castle , Bolton Abbey Estate , Skipton Castle and Ripley Castle . There are also plenty of scenic villages to visit, from Settle to Ripon to Skipton. The Dales themselves are composed of small villages and farmsteads, with small trails connecting much of the area. Head to Swaledale, Wharfedale and Wensleydale for the classic British countryside experience. Local museums include Hawes Ropemakers , Dales Countryside Museum , and Grassington Folk Museum .

The national park is well-known for its cycling trails, with cyclists of all abilities coming to the Yorkshire Dales. The 12-mile Swale Trail is the most famous, and there are also over 600 miles of mountain biking trails or off-road areas. Horseback riding is available at various places around the Dales, and the park is also a designated Dark Sky Reserve, perfect for spotting the Big Dipper.

Best Hikes & Trails

Because the Yorkshire Dales is relatively flat, with hills rather than massive mountains, visitors tend to go on country walks rather than big hikes. There are numerous short walks, as well as some popular long-distance walks, throughout the park. The most famous ascent is the Three Peaks —Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough—which offer a more traditional hiking experience.

Although the Yorkshire Dales are not particularly mountainous, the hill walks can prove challenging, especially in cold or rainy weather. Be sure to come prepared in comfortable, waterproof clothing and solid walking boots with a strong grip. Many of the walking routes in the Dales include stretches of limestone, which gets extremely slippery, and visitors should not enter any of the cave formations without a guide. Take advantage of of the Yorkshire Dales National Park's downloadable Miles Without Stiles routes for those with wheelchairs and strollers.

• Ilkley Moor and the 12 Apostles : From West View Park, head through White Wells to the 12 Apostles, a standing circle of 12 stones. The walk takes about two hours and brings climbers to the highest point on the moor (although it is a relatively easy trek).
• The Herriot Way: Named for author James Herriot, a veterinary surgeon who lived and worked in the Dales, this circular walk is 52 miles long and takes four or five days to traverse. Opt to do part of the route, or go all in for the full circuit.
• Aysgarth Falls : Follow a two and a half-mile loop around the famed Aysgarth Falls. The trek includes scenic woodlands and a pub called the Wheatsheaf, which marks the halfway point.
• Three Peaks Challenge: Embark on a hike across the Dales' Three Peaks, a route that covers 24 miles and takes about 12 hours. Take the challenge yourself, or do it in an organized group.

Road cycling and mountain biking are great ways to explore Yorkshire Dales National Park, which is known for its many cycling trails. The park boasts numerous routes for all ability levels, with an emphasis on off-road mountain biking. Look for various bike rental shops in the area, if you need to rent a bike and gear.

• The Swale Trail: Running 12 miles long, the Swale Trail is an easy mountain bike route running the length of Swaledale, from Reeth to Keld.  The route is targeted to visitors with older children and those with some cycling experience, and offers several stops along the way. Embark on the Viking Challenge for some extra fun along the route.
• Gargrave Short Circuit: Travel from the small town of Gargrave up into the southern Yorkshire Dales along several quiet roads via the Gargrave Short Circuit. Don't miss the well-known cyclists’ café the Dalesman in Gargrave.
• Ilkley to Bolton Abbey: One of the most popular routes is a back road that goes from Ilkley to Bolton Abbey, taking cyclists on a relatively easy ride for about six miles. Some opt to extend the route to Wharfedale or to Embsay and Skipton.
• Malham Tarn: Try your hand at mountain biking at Malham Tarn, which traverses stone tracks and quiet tarmac roads. The circular route, which is good for beginners, runs a little over four miles.

The waterfalls, rivers and lakes in the Yorkshire Dales National Park are popular for swimming, as well as kayaking, canoeing, sailing and windsurfing. Sailing can be found at Semer Water, a post-glacial lake, and at the reservoirs of Embsay and Grimwith, although Grimwith Reservoir is considered the best place to sail in the Dales. The Yorkshire Dales Sailing Club and Craven Sailing Club both offer opportunities to learn to sail or windsurf.

There are over 2,500 known caves in the Yorkshire Dales, including the longest system in Britain, The Three Counties. Caving is a popular pursuit when visiting the region, and can be safely done in several ways. There are three primary show caves, White Scar Cave, Ingleborough Cave and Stump Cross Caverns, which can be visited with ticketed entry. All are appropriate for kids of all ages. For more adventurous travelers, look for a course with a qualified guide, like Yorkshire Adventure Company , to explore the caverns and rock formations. Experienced explorers can rent caving equipment from  Inglesports .

Yorkshire Dales National Park is a vast area with lots to explore, including numerous small villages that are best seen on a scenic drive. The roads can be winding and difficult to navigate at certain points, so pick a stretch of road that connects two villages or attractions you most want to see. Some of the most popular are Wensleydale to Swaledale, which traverses Buttertubs Pass, and Stainforth Ribblesdale to Halton Gill via Goat Lane and Silverdale Road.

Most of the back country roads are usually quiet, but pay attention, as you may be sharing them with cyclists, pedestrians, and, occasionally, farm animals. Opt for a GPS addition in your rental car in case cell phone service is limited.

There are several private campgrounds through the Yorkshire Dales, which should be booked in advance, especially during the summer. Wild camping is not permitted anywhere in the Yorkshire Dales without permission from the landowner, so be sure to plan your visit in advance.

• Kirkby Malham Camping: Located between the villages of Malham and Kirkby Malham, this pop-up campsite is available during the summer months only. It has portable toilets, a supply of water and trash cans for campers.  
• Rukin’s Park Lodge Campsite: Open from Easter through September, Rukin's Park offers campers an opportunity to pitch a tent alongside the River Swale.
• Hoggarths Campsite: For a quiet campsite, reserve a spot at Hoggarths, found in Upper Swaledale. It is open from March through October, with portable toilets available until the end of September.
• Camp Kátur Glamping: A less rustic experience is on offer at Camp Kátur Glamping, which has yurts, safari tents, pods and clear unidomes for rent.

The Yorkshire Dales are filled with charming hotels, small B&Bs and holiday cottages. Whether you prefer to stay in one of the villages or in a countryside accommodation, there are plenty of options for travelers. For unique housing options, check out  Canopy & Stars , a travel site with interesting properties for rent around the U.K., or Sykes Holiday Cottages ,

• The Traddock Hotel: This Georgian manor house has elegant rooms, its own restaurant and afternoon tea in the garden. The family-run hotel is a great place to stay while exploring the Dales.
• Yorebridge House: Located in Wensleydale, this five-star property has a historic feel but contemporary rooms. There is a restaurant and bar, as well as private outdoor hot tubs in select guest rooms.
• The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa: Reserve at room at the Devonshire Arms, located on the Bolton Abbey Estate, not far from Skipton. The hotel has a restaurant, spa, gym and an indoor pool, as well as a popular afternoon tea service.
• The Craven Arms: The Craven Arms, in Giggleswick, is a historic free house with eight rooms. Be sure to grab a table for dinner at the pub, which serves British classics.

Yorkshire Dales

Why we love the yorkshire dales.

Proof that perfection can’t be rushed, the Yorkshire Dales was millions of years in-the-making. With its heather-topped moorlands, hefty peaks and patchwork of pastures, this is quintessential British countryside with a hardy edge – sculpted by ancient glaciers and jam-packed with fossils.

To explore it all, it’s best to stay on the move: hill hiking, gorge climbing, valley cycling and village touring. Maybe you’ll ride a steam train over Ribblehead Viaduct’s towering arches, or trot through the wild moors on horseback? Beneath your feet, there’s a warren of caves and grottoes to discover too – while the Dales’ rich farming heritage makes it a real foodie hotspot.

Whatever your adventure, here’s how to delve deeper into Yorkshire Dales National Park.

VisitBritain/Sam Barker

Devour a famous pudding

The Yorkshire Dales has gourmet pleasures galore – from fluffy-yet-crispy Yorkshire puddings and tangy Wensleydale cheese, to small-batch gins, curd tarts and ginger-spiced parkin cake. In July, visit the Yorkshire Dales Food and Drink Festival, a four-day feast of local fare. You’ll find excellent pubs and tearooms throughout the national park, and the village of Wensleydale is delightful.

Stephen Garnett

Find your pedal power

We’ll let you into a secret: you don’t need thighs of steel to cycle the Yorkshire Dales peaks . Electric bikes make even the steepest ascent easy, and are available for hire throughout the national park. Its countless off-road bridleways, forest paths and moorland tracks offer routes for all abilities, while the 12-mile (20km) Swale Trail is a favourite for its valley views, waterfalls and pubs.

Venture into the underworld

Craving adventure? With its thundering waterfall and twisting tunnels, White Scar Cave – the longest show cave in Britain – is catnip for explorers. And that’s not all: Ingleborough Cave is full of eerie formations, reached via a 1.3-mile (2km) woodland trail, while Stump Cross Caverns is a hotspot for fossil-finding, and offers tours with its resident geologist.

Bolton Castle

Discover a Medieval treasure

If walls could talk, Bolton Castle would have almost 650 years of stories to tell: this Medieval stronghold has wowed visitors since the 1300s, and even served as a prison for Mary Queen of Scots in 1568. Its falconry displays, archery and theatrical battles bring its history to life – while the glorious gardens and ruins of both Fountains Abbey and Bolton Abbey are rich in Dales heritage too.

Conquer the Three Peaks

The mighty Three Peaks – the mountains of Pen-y-ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside – offer spectacular hiking. They can be climbed individually, but for 24 miles (38.6km) of epic scenery and leg-pumping ascents, follow the circular Three Peaks loop. Other rewarding routes include waterfall walks to Aysgarth Falls and Janet’s Foss: they’re particularly awesome after rain.

Celebrate music, heritage – and cheese

Join the party! From big-name fiestas to quaint village fêtes, the next festival is never far away. Summer brings traditional agricultural shows – for food markets, fell races and sheepdog trials – while October’s Yorkshire Dales Cheese Festival celebrates fine local fromage. For music, look to Swaledale and Grassington festivals; for literature, visit Richmond’s ‘Books and Boots’ gathering.

Getting to Yorkshire Dales

The Yorkshire Dales spans the counties of North Yorkshire, Cumbria and Lancashire, in northern England. Leeds Bradford Airport is just 25 minutes away by car, while Manchester Airport is one hour and 15 minutes. Both are international hubs, reached by direct flights from all over the world. The local train links are excellent, too: the service from London Kings Cross to Leeds takes two hours, and Edinburgh to Leeds is three hours.

Getting around

While public transport is the carbon-conscious choice, it’s also convenient and easy to access in the Dales – with extra bus and train services running in the peak summer season. Bikes can be rented throughout the national park, including e-bikes to make light work of those uphill jaunts.

By electric car

If you’re renting a car, it makes sense to go electric, especially as all ten of the Yorkshire Dales public car parks offer EV charging points .

With the Dales Bus , it’s easy to reach hiking trails and attractions: the routes extend throughout the park, and link up with local train stations.

The Leeds–Settle–Carlisle line runs right through the Dales, and is packed with magnificent sights – including the famous Ribblehead Viaduct.

Yorkshire Dales National Park

The Dales have been farmed for thousands of years. Without farming, woodland would cover all but the highest moorland. There would be no drystone-walled fields, no hay meadows, no isolated field barns.

In the Middle Ages, Italian merchants came to buy wool from Fountains Abbey and Bolton Priory. Later farmers kept cattle to supply cheese and butter to the industrial towns surrounding the Dales. In winter cattle were kept inside field barns and fed on hay cut from the surrounding meadows. Changing agricultural practice means most field barns are now redundant.

For information on farming today, see the Farming pages in the Living & Working section of the website.

Farming Through The Seasons

Farming in the uplands is challenging, both physically and economically. The management of the Yorkshire Dales National Park by farmers and landowners is intrinsically important to the landscape’s conservation and to protect some of Britain’s rarest habitats and species.

Farms are important rural businesses and employers, and are vital to rural society.

Watch the first of four seasonal films telling the story of an upland hill farm.

For Stephen Bostock and 24 year-old nephew David, spring is a favourite time of year as everything comes to life and they prepare for lambing.

Watch the second of four seasonal films telling the story of an upland hill farm.

For Dave Fullerton, summer is his favourite time of year, but it’s also a very busy time of year especially when up against the weather.

Farmer Steve Bostock talks about autumn. “The nights get darker, the days are shorter, all the challenges lay ahead. A melancholy time of year in the farming world”.

Watch the final instalment in our series of seasonal films telling the story of an upland hill farm.

Farms are important rural businesses and employers, and are vital to rural society. For Dave Fullerton winter is definitely one of the hardest seasons on the farm, partly because of the snow and bad weather they get.

Suggested itinerary:

Your private tour of the Yorkshire Dales starts with collection from your hotel in York (or wherever you are staying) at 9:00am. You’ll meet your driver-guide, a Yorkshire native born and raised in the area who has years of touring experience and a ton of local knowledge to draw upon.

Heading away from York, you are soon be surrounded by Yorkshire’s famous farmland and countryside. A quick stop in Knaresborough as you head towards the Yorkshire Dales gives a chance to take in the view of the Nidd Gorge and Knaresborough’s beautiful Victorian railway bridge from Knaresborough Castle.

The landscape soon changes as you reach the foothills of the Yorkshire Dales, travelling into Nidderdale, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. You’ll then climb up through Nidderdale, with views across the wild moorland scenery as we head to Grassington. The picture-postcard Yorkshire market town of Grassington is famous for its role as “Darrowby” in the most recent adaptation of All Creatures Great & Small .  A visit to Grassington offers you a lovely opportunity to explore its narrow winding streets and famous marketplace, as well as chance for you to perhaps enjoy a cup of tea or coffee in a local café.

Grassington sits in Wharfedale, one of the three main ‘dales’ in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The route from Grassington takes us alongside the River Wharfe and up above the towns and villages that lie in the bottom of Wharfedale. The rural roads and farm lanes get narrower as we climb up and over the top of Wharfedale and into Wensleydale – the most famous dale in the National Park. Wensleydale has some superb sites to visit and is known for its cheese (Wallace & Gromit’s favourite!), which you can taste on a visit to the Wensleydale Creamery (an optional stop on the private tour).

You can take in the views as you travel through Wensleydale, perhaps stopping at Aysgarth Falls or Bolton Castle. Climbing out of Wensleydale, you can stop at the top of the Buttertubs Pass to enjoy some of the most dramatic scenery in the Yorkshire Dales.

Swaledale is the next valley that we reach and is the deepest and steepest of the dales in the National Park. The hillsides are lined with ancient stone walls, preserved cow-houses and thousands of sheep. In Swaledale you can wander through the isolated town of Muker, enjoy a stop in Reeth and driver through the famous watersplash ford seen in the opening credits of the original All Creatures Great & Small TV series.

A visit to Richmond as you leave the Yorkshire Dales gives you chance to visit the town’s Norman castle and perhaps the option to round off the tour with a pint of Yorkshire beer in a local Richmond pub.

Options to consider:

• “ The Finest View in England ” – the view from Sutton Bank across the amazing farming countryside of North Yorkshire.

16 Of The Best Yorkshire Dales Circular Walks

The Yorkshire Dales is one of our favourite places in the world. Its landscape is so unique and it offers everything from mountain walks, woodland, waterfalls, and more along with idyllic villages. We’ve put together a list of the best circular walks in the Yorkshire Dales just for you.

Whether it’s taking in the views up on Malham Cove, or pottering along next to Aysgarth Falls, there is something for everyone heading to the Yorkshire Dales.

1. Malham Circular

The 4-mile walk is probably the one we’ve done the most and will do the most in the Dales as it always provides such epic and varied views including two of the most fantastic waterfalls.

Malham Cove is a unique limestone formation that was created in. the last ice age thousands of years ago and sits overlooking the village of Malham.

There is something mythical about Janet’s Foss too, which is a popular wild swimming spot although we’ve onyl managed. toget up to our knees when we’ve tried it.

2. Ingleton Waterfall Trail

If you like waterfalls then this is a walk for you. The Yorkshire Dales Walk is home to waterfalls of all shapes and sizes which is why thousands of people travel there every year.

There are five main waterfalls along the walk and eight water spots in total. The trail follows two rivers the Twiss and Doe from the Ingleton starting point.

You also be treated to views of all three peaks along the four-mile route – and budding photographers will be keen to get some stunning shots of Thornton Force, which is part of the first half of the trail.

3. Muker To Crackpot Circular

A great summer walk due to its Wildflowers in bloom, Muker to Crackpot Hall is perfect for those that love a meadow carpeted with a flurry of colour.

The meadows have such a nostalgic feel for us. The golden-yellow colours have a feel of summer that just hits us every time we visit.

Taking a walk North of the village takes you to the famous Crackpot Hall, which is a former farmhouse and lead mine that sits in its surroundings seamlessly creating a stunning picture postcard snapshot of the Yorkshire Dales.

4. Aysgarth Falls

Found along the River Ure, near Leyburn, the trio of small waterfalls is one of the most popular Yorkshire Dales circular walks – ad with good reason.

The waterfall walk makes for a great summer walk with plenty of wildlife and nature to be enjoyed. The whole area is flourishing at this time of year. Although, saying that – it is a pretty great spot to be in autumn when the air is crisp and the ground is littered with golden leaves.

You can easily access the Yorkshire Dales waterfall from the village of Aysgarth.

5. Hull Pot Walk

A collapsed cavern, Hull Pot is a 60ft deep hole, which has a stunning waterfall that cascades down into it. It’s a beautiful place to visit but make sure you enjoy it at a distance as it’s a hole you don’t want to fall down.

The walk to the natural hole and waterfall on the slopes of Pen y ghent is definitely worthy of your bucket list. The walk stars at the village of Horton in Ribblesdale and is another popular place to visit.

6. Bolton Abbey

Located on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales, Bolton Abbey is home to the 2nd-century Augustinian monastery, which has the River Wharfe meandering past it.

It’s a vast area to explore and has something for all the family. Its stepping stones are a right of passage to all that visit – so don’t worry if you topple in! You’re not the first.

Head up into the canopy of trees or follow the lower route following the river. Either way, you can head to the lovely cafe for a cup of tea and some cake afterwards.

Meandering through beautiful Hawes – a small rural town in the centre of the Yorkshire Dales – Gayle Beck flows right between the town’s homes, creating a peaceful waterfall as it carries itself on a journey into the countryside from the River Ure.

The beck, which flows right through Hawes, breaks off of the River Ure just outside of the market town, before travelling towards the South of the Yorkshire Dales where it creates the beautiful Aysgill Force and is one of the best Yorkshire Dales Circular Walks in the area.

But it’s not just the beck that makes this town so special. In fact, Hawes is the home of the famous Wensleydale Cheese – which is still produced there to this day. You can even visit their HQ if you’d like, where you can, of course, eat your body weight in delicious cheeses as the team talks you through their history and how it’s all made.

8. Ribblehead Viaduct

For an unforgettable experience with stunning views, make sure you head to Ribblehead Viaduct in the Yorkshire Dales. It takes you up the highest of the three peaks, Whernside Mountain.

The Ribblehead Viaduct carries the Settle-Carlisle railway across the Batty Moss in North Yorkshire and carried the first passenger across in September 1874.

The circular walk from the Ribblehead Viaduct is around 8.4 miles and offers some awe-inspiring views along with some rugged terrain and steep climbs – but is well worth the effort. Especially when you finish at a pub.

Reeth is in the Yorkshire Dales, just a stone’s throw from Richmond, and is one of the most tranquil and serene places to visit if you’re looking for a break.

Reeth is a great starting point for over 12 hiking trails and is also in range of some exciting views such as Buttertubs pass, Britain’s highest pub the Tan Hall Inn and the famous Ravensear Farm, which is home to the popular show Our Yorkshire Farm

10. Grassington to Hebden

This  Grassington  to Hebden walk in the Yorkshire Dales is a great way to explore the Dales and we couldn’t recommend this route any more.

One of Grassingtons many Yorkshire Dales circular walks starts at Grassington National Trust centre the walk is around 4 miles long, which should take around a minimum of 1.5 hours to complete. Along the route, you’ll come across some fantastic sights including the old stone walls synonymous with the Yorkshire Dales, and rolling views.

You’ll head along Low Lane then onto High Lane following the old pack horse path between villages, which is around 1.5 miles to Hebden along this route. Head through woods then across fields to join a walled lane towards the village of Hebden. The walk offers fantastic views over lower Wharfedale looking towards Simon’s Seat and Barden.

11. Burnsall

When I think about the places my imagination took me when reading fairytale storybooks as a child, the scenes consisted of ample greenery, stunning arched bridges, hills for miles and, of course, magical castles complete with towers and flags. And while Burnsall doesn’t quite have a grand palace made of stone, it does have everything else.

An original Anglo-Viking settlement, today, Burnsall remains home to rare Viking and Anglo-Saxon carved stones, which can still be seen to this day at the quaint parish church that stands tall above the waterside village.

In the summer months, you’ll find guests soaking up the scenery by the riverside, walkers taking an idyllic rest from the Dales Way or diners enjoying the views from afar at the nearby Devonshire Fell Hotel – but whatever they’re doing, best believe it’s blooming relaxing.

12. Stainforth and Catrigg

Another little hidden gem in the Yorkshire Dales, located deep within a wooded gorge is Catrigg Force. Once visited by composer Edward Elgar and friends who praised the 20ft high waterfall.

The walk takes you from the village of Stainforth through the woods with a beautiful beck to the wonderful waterfall where you can enjoy a dip before continuing on into the hills.

Settle is home to the heritage Settle to Carlise railway journey which takes in the beautiful landscape in the surrounding area of the town of Settle. As do the circular walks in the area,

From Settle, you can follow the Malham path over the Attermire Scar which heads past Victoria Cave before returning back to the town where you can enjoy. a few bevvies in the local pub.

14. Buckden To Cray Waterfalls

Buckden Pike’s summit affords beautiful views of North Yorkshire, but it does not draw the crowds like the three peaks and other prominent spots do.

The 5-mile walk takes you from Buckden up to Cray Gill Falls via Hubbleholme. There are some beautiful waterfalls to experience along this lesser-known Dales walk, which you will absolutely love. Cray Gill Falls and Crook Gill are the most impressive waterfalls along the walk which has a couple of pubs along the way – even better!

15. Cotter Force

One of the more popular waterfalls in the Yorkshire Dales, Cotter Force is found along with Cotterdale Beck just down from where it flows into, the River Ure, in upper Wensleydale.

It is accessible from Holme Heads Bridge where there is a large layby. It’s a perfect spot for beginners to the world of wild swimming and has great access, so all can enjoy.

16. West Burton

Situated in Lower Wensleydale (chheese Gromit), West Burton is a beautiful village made famous by  J.M.W Turner’s painting  which hangs in the Tate Modern art gallery. He painted the spectacular Burton Fall back in 1816 while he was doing his tour of Yorkshire.

West Burton has all the traditional charms of a Yorkshire village. You can visit the local pub, and a little village shop, and take in the sizeable village green in the centre after one of Yorkshire Dales circular walks in the area. There is plenty of countryside to explore as well, so make sure you take your walking boots.

Yorkshire Shepherdess still works with husband on farm despite split, son reveals

Former couple’s eldest child Reuben says ‘nothing has changed’ as his estranged parents continue their day job together

The Yorkshire Shepherdess is still working alongside her estranged husband on their farm, their eldest son has revealed.

Amanda and Clive Owen, the stars of television series Our Yorkshire Farm, announced their separation in 2022 but “nothing has changed” as they continue their day job together.

Reuben Owen, 20, said: “Mum and dad were both there, working away, together, doing summat with the cows.

“That’s how it is. Nothing has changed in that regard. They just get on with it.”

Reuben is one of the couple’s nine children based at the Yorkshire Dales farm that inspired Channel 5’s pastoral hit. The couple say the show contributed to the end of their relationship .

Mr Owen, a farmer who married the 49-year-old former model in 2000, said last year that he had “a massive part to play” in their marriage ending after he “handled it badly” when the show started to take off.

They first met in 1996, when Mrs Owen was working as a contract shepherdess and visited his farm, Ravenseat, to collect a ram. They went on to marry four years later, but grew apart over time.

Their son Reuben, who will now star in his own farming TV show alongside friends Sarah and Tom, made his first screen appearance when he was eight years old.

Speaking to the Daily Mail about his parents, he said: “They are both the same, really.

“They get on with whatever jobs need doing. Great role models, really, brilliant. Farming away, out in the rain and snow. They are really tough, the pair of them.”

‘Great fun’

He described his childhood on the farm as “grand”, saying: “I couldn’t imagine a better place to grow up. It was great fun.”

Reuben: Life In The Dales will show the 20-year-old and his friends navigate his own ground-works business, which includes bulldozers and earthmovers.

He said that he doesn’t see himself “as a TV star” and that he will just “stick to what I know – my diggers and machinery”.

He added: “But it’s nice that people have tuned in over the years, so when they asked if I’d like to do this, I thought, ‘Why not?’.

“It shows people what’s going on. It doesn’t really make a difference to us. We are just doing what we are always doing, but if people watching it on telly means bringing them a bit of happiness.”

The new show is the latest spin-off from the Our Yorkshire Farm programme. One series featuring Reuben and his father was titled Beyond the Yorkshire Farm.

The original show was axed after five seasons after Amanda and Clive announced their separation in 2022.

Since then, the couple have attempted to maintain normal habits for their children, continuing to work together and eating meals as a family.

Reuben’s siblings are Raven, Miles, Edith, Violet, Sidney, Anna, Clemmy, and Nancy.
