Overview

From the car park we have a little climb up the road to reach The Weardale Way path. We continue on The Weardale Way with some climbs to reach Sunnyside Edge. We then continue around the moor to Harehope Quarry where we will stop for lunch. It's then a gentle stroll back to Wolsingham alongside the River Wear and Weardale Railway track

There are just a couple of stiles
