Meeting point and time: The little parking area at the junction of Dob Park Road and Weston Moor Road (the road from Blubberhouses to Otley) on the far side of the Washburn Valley at map ref. SE 195 492. Further roadside parking is possible down the side-road. 0915 for an 0930 start.
Route: An attractive, relaxing, 5 mile circular walk with gentle downhill (and uphill) paths and tracks mostly across fields. There are half a dozen stiles in reasonable repair and a couple of dilapidated stone walls to cross, but mostly a lot of very smart aluminium field gates with inset pedestrian gates. Great views!
The route is taken from the “Yorkshire Walks” website here.
Lunch venue: The Roebuck, formerly The Spite, along Weston Moor Road on the way to Otley, at approx 1pm.
