Walks in West Yorkshire
West Yorkshire is full of family friendly walks! Some of our favourites include the Otley Chevin Surprise View, which is a three-mile circular walk, the family trails at the unique Beaumont Park, and The Room on the Broom Adventure Trail with activities and carvings based on Julia Donaldson’s book, Room on the Broom.
Walks in North Yorkshire
I am sure you could spend a decade exploring North Yorkshire and never run out of new places to walk! On the edge of the Dales is the gorgeous Skipton Castle Woodland with stunning views of Skipton Castle for part of the walk. If the kids fancy getting muddy and having the chance to climb, crawl, swing, and hop through the ‘deep dark woods’ the Bolton Abbey Welly Walk is another winner in our house. A walk at Hackfall Woods near Ripon in North Yorkshire is full of surprises, with lush ancient woodland, waterfalls, and follies.
