Riverside Walk from Riverside Campsite
This easy riverside walk makes for a pleasant stroll through fields and along the riverbank of the River Aire. About a mile long it might take half an hour – unless you sit a while to enjoy the scenery or get chatting to other walkers!
As with any walk in the countryside the way could be wet and muddy, especially after rain. So be sure to wear suitable footwear.
From Riverside Campsite reception make your way to the Tenting Field and head for the gate at the bottom left corner of the field
Go through the gate and turn right into the footpath, continuing through two gates.
Climb over the stile at the end of the footpath and into a farm track
Turn left down the farm track heading for the gate on the right.
By the gate, climb over the stile and into the field.
Continue your walk along the right-hand side of the field, looking out for the stile in the right-hand corner of the field.
Climb over the stile and climb to the top of the embankment. From here, apart from some lovely views all around, you can see the next stile in the right-hand corner of the field.
Climb over the stile and continue bearing left through a gap in the row of trees. You’ll then be on the footpath alongside the River Aire.
Head left following the path to the next stile.
Over this stile and walk along the riverbank or climb up onto and walk the embankment to enjoy the beautiful scenery from a higher level.
Please take care to safeguard the ground-nesting birds and take control of your dogs because there may be grazing animals and their young ones sharing the riverbank.
The path follows the winding river through a number of gates.
You may see canoeists along the way.
On the far side of the gate beside a hole in the fence, the way takes a left turn.
Climb up the embankment and from the top you’ll see a stile in the bottom left corner of the field.
Go through the stile, across the farm track and through a second stile into a large field.
Follow the, possibly faint path to the left, diagonally across the field to the gate in the far corner.
If you are with a rally and in field two you can finish your walk through the gate in the fence on the right. Congratulations on completing the Riverside Walk.
If not, continue to and through the gate in the corner.
Follow the footpath with the campsite on your right.
If you are with a rally and in field one, this gate will take you back to your pitch. Congratulations on completing the Riverside Walk.
The next gate will complete the circuit, bringing you back to the tenting field.
Congratulations on completing the Riverside Walk
