Walk: Grewelthorpe and Hackfall
Grewelthorpe, the River Ure, the ancient woodland and follies of Hackfall. The Route What3Words for start point:ย ///unwind.bootleg.different Start / Finish Point: Grewelthorpe, Ripon HG4 3BW Distance: 4 Miles GPX Route Map grewelthorpe-and-hackfallDownload Walk Description Hackfall Woods lies just outside the village of Grewelthorpe, an expansive area of semi-natural ancient woodland that cloaks the steep banks of the River Ure. Hackfall Woods was bought by John Aislabie in 1731, who most famously laid out the formal water gardens of Studley Royal at nearby Fountains Abbey. His son William transformed Hackfall into a romantic โwildernessโ garden with trees, walkways, waterfalls, surprise views and follies, all set on the dramatic slopes above the River Ure. Hackfall Woods has provided inspiration for many of our great artistic minds, including Turner who came here to paint whilst William Wordsworth recommended a visit to the woods en route to the Lake District โ Wedgwood even used Hackfall Wood scenes for a dinner service for Catherine II of Russia! It had been neglected for many years and looked destined for โredevelopmentโ when The Woodland Trust stepped in and bought Hackfall in the late 1980s and has since restored the garden; it now has Grade 1 listed status. Our route from Grewelthorpe heads across farmland and then follows a muddy path that meanders gently down through the woods to join the banks of the River Ure, with thick woodland and tumbling streams all around. The highlight is the path that heads up across the top of the wooded banks to the Ruin at Mowbray Point, which was built in 1767 by William Aislabie as a banqueting house. Its eastern facade was designed to look like a ruined triumphal archway, with magnificent views right across the Vale of Mowbray towards the North York Moors as well as Hackfall Woods beneath your feet and the folly of Mowbray Castle clearly visible in the woods. The Ruin has been restored and is used as a holiday cottage. The path then heads into the steep-sided side-valley of Grewelthorpe Beck, with its series of small waterfalls and weirs.

Walk: Hackfall Woods - Short Route
A blast of woodland in this simple walk through Hackfall Woods. The Route Start / Finish Point: Lay-by on Nutwith Ln, Ripon HG4 3DF Distance: 2 Miles GPX Route Map walkshirehackfallwoodsDownload Walk Description From the layby, keep the wood to the right of you, and walk towards the Public Footpath sign pointing into the wood. Turn right and follow the path into the woods. When the public footpath turns right over a bridge, continue to carry straight on. Follow the clear path until thereโs a fork. Take the left hand turn and continue to follow the path as it drops fairly sharply. Cross over two streams and turn right, then right again to the Weeping Rock. Continue along the path, with the river not too far away on the left. This is now part of the Ripon Rowel Walk. The path bends around to the left, and soon thereโs a large path branching off to the right. Take this path as it climbs back up, turning right as it bends round and follow it all the way to where the pathโs forked, after crossing a stream. Turn left and retrace your footsteps back to the entrance of the wood, and then turn left to return to where you parked.
