We are the Manchester Coach Rambles Group. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Guided Ramblers walk in the beautiful countryside around the market town of Skipton in North Yorkshire. The cost of £15.00 includes return travel from Central Manchester and a choice of 3 led walks of different lengths. You must book and pay for your ticket in advance but you can decide how far you want to walk when you get on the coach.
