Ian Park will lead an 8 mile walk from Stainforth, visiting the dramatic limestone scenery around Feizor.

Allowing for the extra journey time by minibus, we will need to leave Burley Station car park at 9.00.  There will be a £8.00 charge for transport – bring cash on the day. As numbers are limited, please book beforehand via [email protected] .  No dogs allowed.

Leaving Stainforth above Settle, we will visit Stainforth Force then follow the riverside path to Stackhouse.  Beyond and behind the village, we will climb steeply at first into limestone country following the route of Wainright’s Pennine Journey, to the tiny hamlet of Feizor. If not too busy we will have a break at Elaine’s café before heading on to the Dales High Way, then climbing Smearsett Scar before descending back to Stainforth.  Near the end of the walk we may also call into the campsite bar at Knight Stainforth.

Remember to bring a picnic lunch and sufficient to drink. Come equipped for a high-level walk with possible bad weather.  There are several stiles enroute and some steep ascents and descents.

David Asher will lead a 5 mile walk up to Reva Hill this month. Meet at Burley Station at 10.00.

Leaving Burley via Hag Farm Road we will climb up to Green Lane via the Hermit. We will then follow Courters Lane onto Burley Moor to reach Reva Hill. Before turning back towards Burley Woodhead, we will have a short break at the old shooting range at Craven Hall Hill then drop down to Moor Lane to return to Burley Station.  Those wanting refreshments can continue on to Cockpit Farm Tea Rooms.  There are no stiles but some moderate ascents with one short steep set of steps. Remember to bring a drink or snack for the midway break.
