🥾 14½ miles 🥾 Strenuous 🥾 Leader: Stevie 🥾A delightful walk through Golden Acre Country Park, the parkland surrounding Harewood House, around Eccup reservoir and over rolling countryside giving expansive views across Wharfedale.
Fans of Emmerdale will be able to glimpse the film set 🎥 as we walk past. As we go round the walk, we should be treated to woodland spring flowers 🌼, deer 🦌 and red kites 🐦, and we will have lunch by the ruins of Harewood Castle 🏰
Although this walk has no big hills, it is undulating all the way round, and due to the distance we will need to maintain a good pace in order to finish in daylight.
