Walks in the Yorkshire Dales Summary

Walks in the Yorkshire Dales: v. 1 by J. Keighley

The area known as the Yorkshire Dales is many things to many people, but above all it is magnificent walking country. Walking has traditionally been the favourite pursuit of those visiting a region which offers a range of attractions perhaps unrivalled anywhere else in the whole of Britain: wild, desolate fells; extensive tracts of heather moorland; rugged limestone scars, pavements and spectacular cliffs; awe-inspiring caves and potholes; deep river gorges and sparkling mountain streams; exquisitely beautiful waterfalls; green fertile valleys and flowery meadows; outstanding view; a vast network of public footpaths and bridleways; remote, picturesque villages and bustling market towns; ancient abbeys, churches and castles; and relics of ancient civilizations. All the walks described in this book are circular and begin at a place where a car may be parked without causing an obstruction. They are fairly uniform in length, an average of 6 1/2 miles making them half-day rather than full-day excursions. The routes are almost entirely public rights of way, with an occasional recourse to commonly-used tracks in open country. They should be free from serious difficulty, and well within the capability of reasonably fit and agile walkers.
