Overview

A pleasant walk  through lanes and across fields starting and ending from the Blue Bell Inn in the very attractive village of Arkendale.

This is a fairly level walk with few inclines (those that there are, are gentle slopes). We will walk through another attractive village - Coneythorpe. Lunch will be at a farm, where refreshments and toilet facilities are available.
