Jon Fallis has chosen 15 of the best short walks around Nidderdale in
the Yorkshire Dales for you to explore. Our guide comes with
easy-to-read Ordnance Survey maps and clear route descriptions, perfect
if you're new to walking or are looking for something you can enjoy with
the whole family.
We've included information on local beauty spots and tasty refreshment
stops, and most of the walks can be completed in under 3 hours.
We haven't included any walks with challenging terrain or complicated
navigation, and all you'll need to take with you are a waterproof jacket
and a pair of comfortable trainers.
