Meet Howard Lloyd at 10.30am at the Old Stone Bridge over the river at the bottom of Stockeld Road Ilkley (off A65) for a walk on the Dales Way to Addingham alongside the River Wharfe and returning to Ilkley through tranquil Wharfedale countryside.

It is advisable to bring food and drinks on all our walks and activities, and we recommend that for walks starting before lunchtime you bring a packed lunch.
