North Yorkshire: Accessible Walks for All - OS Pathfinder Guides

This guide comprises 33 beautiful walks ranging in distance from 0.5 to 8 miles across North Yorkshire, with ten routes in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, eleven in the North York Moors National Park, North Sea coast routes at Whitby, Robin Hood’s Bay and Bempton, and routes handily placed near the Richmond, Ripon, Thirsk and York.

Walks are sequenced in the book from shortest to longest, while each all-abilities route is graded for wheelchairs according to one of three accessibility ratings: for all, for many and for some. By design, these routes are all pushchair friendly and make delightful, reasonably gentle walks for everyone to enjoy.

Route descriptions are presented with GPS waypoints, large-scale OS Explorer mapping and feature of interest information, with notes on parking and accessibility. You can enjoy the calming, sylvan beauty of peaceful Nettledale, roam the extensive parkland at Castle Howard, and explore the fascinating geological outcrops at Brimham Rocks.
