The River Ure runs right through Wensleydale with numerous bridges allowing us to cross over the valley.
With lots of becks and streams along the dale all running off the hills into river it gradually gets wider the further east you travel.
One bridge the stands out is a Grade II listed building and that’s Middleham Bridge.

After collecting a group staying in Hawes from the train station this week they asked for recommendations on walks, places to visit and eat.

We gladly shared our local knowledge, here’s one of the walks transported them to and from, approx 8.5miles.

Starting in Bainbridge they collected provisions from Corn Mill.The Bake-Well then headed up the fields to Semerwater, round the lake taking in the Old Church at Stalling Busk, across to Marsett, then up and over the top meeting the old Roman road and back into Bainbridge. They were ready for an ice cream before their ride back to Hawes.

The Herriot Way walk is named after James Herriot the famous vet and writer. It’s a 52 mile circular route running through Wensleydale and Swaledale in the Yorkshire Dales.

James Peacock Private Hire, Bainbridge, Leyburn covers this area and further afield.

Some walkers like to base themselves in the same accommodation for the duration with ourselves transporting them to the start point at the beginning of the day and then collecting them from the finish point and returning them to the accommodation each day. Alternatively walkers move to new accommodation around the route each day with ourselves then transporting their luggage.

Traditionally the walk starts and finishes in Aysgarth over 4 days with the route as:
Aysgarth to Hawes 12 miles
Hawes to Keld 12.5 miles
Keld to Reeth 11 miles
Reeth to Aysgarth 14 miles

The walk really does show case our beautiful area, the fells, traditional villages, market town, rivers, water falls old railway lines, castle, mines……
