Join ResLife and GOGA on this guided walking trip from fascinating natural wonders of the rock formations of the National Trust's Brimham Rocks to the picturesque Yorkshire Dales market-town of Pateley Bridge - home of the oldest sweetshop in the world!  

Meet at the Parkinson Steps at 9am to get on the coach. The coach will return to campus at 5.30pm.

You will have some free time to explore Brimham Rocks before setting off for a walk to Pateley Bridge. Pateley Bridge is a small market town full of cafes, shops and pubs and has plenty of lovely spots to sit and relax by the river after your walk.

There will be two walking route options- a shorter route for people who wish to spend more time in Pateley Bridge and a longer walk for those wishing to explore further.  Please note that the length of time to explore Pateley Bridge will depend on which route option you pick.

Accessibility of this trip

This walking trip takes place on bridleways and footpaths, which although maintained, present a degree of challenge in terms of roughness and weather-resistance alongside countryside features such as stiles and wooden bridges such that we are unable to accommodate any participants with mobility requirements such as a wheelchair, sighted-guide or crutches.
