Overview

This 12 mile circular walk starts from the village of Allerston. Walking along good paths and tracks we head gently uphill into Dalby Forest, where hopefully we will see the trees in their glorious autumn colours. As we leave the forest, we walk on field paths with lovely views over the Vale of Pickering and walk through the village of Wilton, where you can see the remains of the moat that once surrounded Wilton Hall. The final couple of miles are on a fairly quiet country lane and as we near Allerston, we'll see a well preserved bonus feature that made this hiker a happy lass indeed!
