Week 18 - Easy Access

Level of Fitness
Suitable for wheelchair users

The Experience
These two accessible fishing platforms are fully adapted for wheelchairs.  Accessible parking is available on site.

These give you access to fish the River Ure, and this is a great trout and grayling fishing site.  Here the river winds lazily through meadow land and you will also often see birds such as dippers, grey wagtails, kingfishers and sand martins. 

With both deep and shallow strecthes, the river is ideal for 20lb Pike, 6lb Chub and 3lb Perch, not to mention lazy afternoons relaxing in peace.

Have a go
Day tickets are available from the Dales Countryside Museum in Hawes on 10969 666211, or from Boroughbridge Angling Club on 01423 324776
