This path leads directly into the quaint village of Allerthorpe, marking the midpoint of your journey. After a refreshing stop, continue your adventure by heading straight from the pub's front door and proceed down the road for a few hundred meters to the village's edge. There, turn right off the road onto a track, where you'll experience a blend of urban and woodland environments. Finally, at the field's end, a gate straight ahead will lead you back into the woods. Follow the path as it veers left after the gate, winding through the natural forest and returning you to your starting point at the car park.
