Overview

This walk will be led by Anne Exton

The walk is around the pretty village of Huggate and the attractive landscape of the Yorkshire Wolds. The walk utilises sections of the Minster Way, Chalkland Way and the Yorkshire Wolds Way.

From Mill Lane the walk follows the Minster Way in an easterly direction, passing Freshlands Farm to join the Chalkland Way, passing through various pretty Dales to join the Yorkshire Wolds Way on the edge of Huggate. At Nettle Dale there is a short section on rough ground on access land  (where walking poles may be needed) before the Minster Way is re-joined to return to Mill Lane.
