GUIDED TRAIL HOLIDAYS   2012

THE HERRIOT WAY
North Yorkshire

This enjoyable circular walk links many of the settings for the TV series All Creatures Great and Small, based on the writings of the country vet, James Herriot. Visiting the beautiful green valleys of Wensleydale and Swaledale, you’ll sample some of the best scenery in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. We stay for six nights at one hotel in the village of Sedburgh and each day travel by private coach to start and end the walk.

47 miles. 11-13 miles and up to 2,050ft of ascent in a day.
