Dave and Carol – Bolton Abbey walk, 18th July 2026

Our next walk is an easy one at Bolton Abbey, with two ups, both before lunch, for a total of about 500ft all day. There are no stiles, and with good paths there isn’t any mud either. The views, including Bolton Priory ruins, are breathtaking.

Running the entire length of our walk we follow the River Wharfe with dramatic landscapes, and on the way back we pass The Strid, a very dangerous stretch of water running through a narrow gorge.

We have a choice of places for our lunch break, and near the end a delightful cafe and shop with a beautiful outlook. Please be aware that they only accept card payments.

Come and join us for a walk to remember, 6.5 miles of easy walking with lovely friends.
