Overview

A leisurely walk on tracks, field paths and through parkland.  We meet in the courtyard at the Fountains Abbey Visitors Centre.  We walk through Studley Park with a good chance of seeing the deer herds.  Then we follow tracks through woodland and fields around the Southern perimeter of the Studley / Fountains estate.  Lovely views over Fountains Abbey.
