Favourite Routes

These pages are dedicated to some of our favourite routes in Nidderdale. They are a varied bunch and will appeal to different individuals at different times. Each one has been chosen by a member because it shows our dale at its best or offers runners a challenge and the opportunity to see places that are rarely visited.

We take care to ensure that each of these routes has been run by the author and is deemed appropriate to the ability levels listed. However, your safety is your own personal  responsibility and you should take all practical measures to ensure you have a positive experience. Please check our guidance on Kit and Safety and our group definitions before selecting your route.

If you are a member of a club and wish to run one of these routes as an “away day”, why not get in touch and we may be able to join you and add some more colour to what we trust will be a very enjoyable run.
