The Dales Way - A 82 mile walk from Ilkley to Bowness over 6 days

The Dales Way is one of Britain’s best loved, most written about, most beautiful long-distance walks.
Starting at Ilkey in West Yorkshire the 82 mile route follows a river route to Bowness-on-Windermere in the Lake District. The walk has recently featured on Clare Balding’s Radio 4 Ramblings programme (www.bbc.co.uk/p...)
Devised by Colin Speakman, the original guide has been updated by Skyware (www.skyware.co.... ) with large-scale, full colour, strip maps with detailed description of the route, together with insightful accounts of the places and features of interest along the way. Colin makes a special guest appearance in the video and lifts our spirits during another downpour!
This video with give you a taste of this cherished long distance path so that you may join the over 2000 people who do the walk every year. The Dales Way is prefect introduction for those new to long distance walking, especially for those who are planning to tackle the Dales High Way or the longer Coast to Coast walk.
Good luck and happy walking

We did the Dales Way last October, but over 8 days; the Wharf at Grassington looked much the same, a raging torrent. Heaven knows what it has been like this month!

Many thanks for this video. Brought back so many memories ! I remember doing this walk some 20 years ago during the hottest week of the year !

Putting a deadline on any long distance walk destroys it, the first time I did the 3 peaks I was chasing the clock, and, it's fair to say I didn't enjoy it and missed so much, these days, if a walk takes me a single mile an hour, it means I'm enjoying it and absorbing the surroundings, imo, that's the best way to do them
