About W17: Wensleydale - River Trust Discovery Walk - The Station

Please note that some parts of this walk follow paths that feature in the longer Hawes Mosaic Trail walk W5.

A walk and talk led by Catherine Mason from the Yorkshire Dales Rivers Trust. With lovely views of upper Wensleydale throughout, we visit Burtersett and Gayle then follow Widdale Beck downstream to Appersett before crossing the Ure and a gentle ascent to Hardraw, and back to Hawes. Enjoy spotting beautiful fauna and flora and discovering some interesting river facts along the way, including finding out about the Trusts Natural Flood Management project work in the area. There will be an optional free tour of the Rivers4Life summer exhibition at the Dales Countryside Museum on our return. This is generally a moderate walk, with short stretches of road walking mainly on minor roads, several stiles, some narrow and uneven paths and a few gentle climbs.
