A circular walk from the small market town of Hawes with a stiff climb half way round.The walk really takes in the best the Dales has to offer. There are some fantastic panoramic views, a chocolate box village and a great dog-friendly pub along the way too.
The route is easy to follow along stone and green paths and passes along plenty of quiet roads. The route passes along some quiet roads for short periods. You will need to negotiate some gates and one ladder stiles (one is a ladder stile and another is very natrow within dry stone walls) This is the Dales so expect to see plenty of sheep and be ready to keep your dog on a lead.
The route initially follows the Pennine Way to the Green Dragon, the pub that marks the entrance to Hardraw Force and the amphitheatre-like gorge that surrounds it. The walk returns to Hawes via the hamlet of Sedbusk, offering splendid views of Wensleydale.
