Trail description
Leaving the Grassington National Park Centre, this loop passes Linton Falls and follows the River Wharfe to Ghaistrill's Strid, where the river squeezes through a narrow limestone gorge. It then climbs through Grass Wood, an 88 hectare ancient woodland owned by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust since 1983, and returns over the fields and Cove Lane to Grassington.
