About the event

Midlife Hikers walk at Ripon
🥾 12½ miles 🥾 Moderate 🥾 Leader: Stevie 🥾

A walk from Ripon to Fountains Abbey and back, taking in riverside paths, rolling farmland and the folly of the How Hill Tower where we will stop for lunch enjoying great views over the surrounding area. We then return to Ripon through the Fountains deer park and the magnificent Valley of the Seven Bridges where we will see stunning autumn colours.

In the evening, we are organising a social to Fountains by Floodlight - please see separate event for details. We can call into a pub in Ripon for a quick drink if we have time after the walk before heading back to Fountains Abbey for the evening event.
