Details
An evening tour of Harkerside with stunning views (hopefully) of Reeth and Swaledale. From Grinton we’ll follow the Swale Trail before heading up to High Harker Hill on the shooting tracks. The Gentle group will ascend to Maiden Castle while the Moderate group are going all the way to the top. We’ll all enjoy the long descent across the moor back to Grinton.
