North Yorkshire | 20 Best Things To Do - Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors & More

[@Kevin-mx1vi]

I'd like to recommend the walled garden at Helmsley. Formerly the kitchen garden for Duncombe Park and now restored, it's a great place to spend a relaxing afternoon for anyone interested in gardens. It has a lovely tea room where you can sit outside and have wild birds hopping around right under your table and even come begging for crumbs. Even better, if you return within the year, you get in for free ! 😊

Thanks for watching and thanks for the tip! It sounds and looks (from pictures I've seen) like a beautiful place!

I love North Yorkshire, and my favourite town is Knaresborough. Thanks for including it.

[@AlexTravels1]

Our pleasure! Knaresborough is definitely a gem

Great vid - N Yorkshire is without doubt THE most beautiful county in England! Coming from a southerner

Another great walk is Muker to Keld, late summer you will find mukers famous wildflowers, follow the river passing numerous waterfalls and brilliant scenery, stop at Keld for a cake or ice cream then the magic happens. Cross the river and return to Muker on the opposite bank and take in more waterfalls that you was unable to see from the first half of the walk. Nearby is the town of Richmond where you could stay and make your visit longer, Richmond has a lovely castle and shops and bars, yet still has that sense of peacefulness. Explore the outskirts of the town along the riverbank with great views of the castle and visit one of the oldest theatres in the country.

Nice video Alex! Have you been to Goathland? It's been in a lot of TV and film productions, like Harry Potter. It's a beautiful village with a steam train station, about 15 minutes drive from Whitby (it's also on the bus route from York). Another picture postcard place I'd recommend is Hutton-le-Hole, and also Dalby Forest.

Love Rivealux abbey as well. Would reccomend walking from Helmsley castle to the abbey. It was great.

[@AlexTravels1]

Indeed, there was just something about Rievaulx abbey that I can't explain, but it just seemed so atmospheric and unique! and that sounds like a great walk, a castle and an abbey all in one walk, who could refuse that!!

I see you have Whorlton Castle....how about a trip to Roseberry Topping

[@Jogonjungle]

I’m possibly moving with my family from Cornwall to either west or North Yorkshire. I’m really waning to get back in cycling again like mountain bike cycling. There’s not really any good trails near me in Cornwall. Need a fresh change of any ideas would be appreciated

[@beniji]

North York Moors are incredible for cycling. Some incredibly steep climbs if you're feeling fit like Rosedale Chimney at 33% gradient. The views from the top of the moors are spectacular and all the villages are gorgeous.

[@samuelchung5879]

Is it safe to visit Yorkshire Dales on your own in the winter?
