This is a lovely, scenic walk; it’s one for noticing the wildlife and aquatic plants along the canal - it’s not a fast paced walk.

We’ll start from the pretty village of Gargrave, following the route of the Pennine Way across the fields to East Marton, stopping for lunch mid way. Then we’ll return to Gargrave, following the towpath along the meadering Leeds and Liverpool canal.
Parking is available at and around the free North Street car park in Gargrave, found by turning off the A65 at the Old Swan Inn.
The walk starts from this car park. Post code BD23 3RN.
There is also roadside parking.
Public toilets are in the village, a short distance from the car park.
Please wear appropriate clothing and walking boots and bring along wet weather gear as usual.
You’ll need food and drink to keep you going; we'll make a stop for lunch.
No dogs on this walk due to concerns relating to livestock and trip hazard.
For those who would like to join us for a drink after, the Old Swan Inn offers a wide range of beverages and has a lovely garden.
