Pastures and Panoramas Walk at Brimham Rocks

Pass through pastures in Nidderdale with panoramic views across the dale and beyond, on this circular walk. As you walk along the river path, you might see flashes of blue as kingfishers fly past, or brown trout in the river. Muddy in places.

A 11.2 km full-day trail that rewards walkers with a proper day out. Budget roughly 2 hours and 29 minutes at a steady pace.

This is a circular route that brings you back to your exact starting point — ideal for a self-contained day out without having to organise return transport.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
