A beautiful walk in the glorious Yorkshire dales and we were lucky enough to be able to cross the river wharfe using the stepping stones due to the river being low, well worth the visit
Great set of stepping stones. I'm sure some people won't like to cross them, but I found them easy enough on my walk from Grassington.
Lovely stroll from Grassington to the Stepping Stones, across them and back to Linton Falls and Grassington. Easily accessible, clearly sign posted in all directions
This place is nice for walking, the scenery is amazing to look at. I enjoyed my time there, and it has a lot of hidden treasures close by. There are multiple available car parks around, and quite a couple cafes can be found nearby the area.
Great spot but hectic on a sunny day. Loads of family’s and spots to pitch up for a picnic.
