Overview

An interesting walk from Pateley Bridge in beautiful Nidderdale, heading west to join the Nidderdale Way towards the ruined lead mines. We then walk  along Ashfold Side Beck before heading north to join the River Nidd at Wath. We return along the riverside path. The first part of the walk has a few inclines, but nothing too demanding. There will be time at the end to enjoy some refreshments in Pateley Bridge.
