Approaching the Road to Dentdale, with splendid views of Wold Fell in the distance.
The Dales Way shares this bridleway with the Ribble Way.
The Dales Way

A 78 mile long walk from Ilkley to Bowness.
The Dales Way mainly follows attractive dales through the Yorkshire Dales National Park and Howgill Fells and the south-eastern part of the Lake District. From Ilkley it heads along Wharfedale passing Bolton Abbey, the Strid, Grassington and Buckden before crossing Cam Fell and the Pennine Way National Trail to descend to Dentdale. From here, the River Dee is followed to Sedbergh, then the Lune to the Crook of Lune. The Way crosses farmland to reach Burneside and the River Kent, which is traced for several miles before the path branches off to the finish.
There are three Dales Way Link routes from cities nearby: from Leeds (Leeds - Dales Way, 19 miles, on OS maps) and Bradford/Shipley (Shipley - Dales Way, 8 miles, on OS maps), also now with a Bradford - Shipley link, 3 miles, and from Harrogate (Harrogate - Dales Way, 20 miles)

Ribble Way

A 70 mile long distance footpath tracing the River Ribble from the Irish Sea at Longton to its ultimate source on Gavel Gap in the Yorkshire Dales.
It passes through Preston, Ribchester, Clitheroe, Sawley, Gisburn, Settle, Horton-in-Ribblesdale and Ribblehead - from where it follows tributary branches to a spring at 1,850 ft above sea level.
