Why you should do this walk…

A 1.3 mile (2km) there and back walk near Yearsley in North Yorkshire. This popular trail leads you into the mixed woodland of Yearsley Moor with plenty of wildlife and beautiful views to enjoy. This walk is part of the Howardian Hills Easy Countryside Trails collection, published through a collaboration between iFootpath and the Howardian Hills AONB Partnership, with the aim of providing countryside access for all in the Howardian Hills.

 

Dog friendly?…

The walk follows a well-made compacted stone vehicle track for its full length and can be lengthened or shortened to meet your own requirements. There are no stiles, gates or steps on route. Access to the woodland track is via a gap alongside a vehicle barrier, which is 1.1m wide. The route includes several long moderate gradients. It should be noted that the outward leg is generally downhill with the return leg being mostly uphill, so make sure you choose your turning point carefully to suit your own ability. The estimated maximum gradient is 1:8 or 12.5%. The surface would be suitable for rugged pushchairs and rugged disability buggies for most of the year, assuming you can handle the gradients. Dogs are welcome in Yearsley Moor if they are kept under close control, in fact it is a popular dog walking spot.
