Wensley Bridge to Middleham, along The Gallops, down to West Witton, returning by the River Ure

A beautiful walk from West Burton into Bishopdale, not to be missed!

However on a good, clear, very still day with the ground hard and crunchy under foot I set off in the direction of Bishopdale.

Crackpots Mosaic Trail near Kirkby Malzeard, between Masham and Ripon, in the Nidderdale AONB

Joanne and I have been talking about doing the Crackpots Mosaic Trail for a little while, others I know have walked the trail so it came recommended and we weren’t disappointed.
