There's a pay car park in Burnsall (£6.30 for 6 hours) or you may find free parking on the street. This is a beautiful walk taking you on a path beside the river Wharfe, over the suspension bridge and up to Hebden (picnic table en route, tea room and pub in Hebden). Leave Hebden and head up High Lane which takes you in to Grassington (location for the new series of All Creatures Great and Small). You then head down to the Wharfe and make your way to Linton Falls passing Little Emily's Bridge as you carry on up the road to the crossroads. Go straight on along Lauradale Lane and down into the pretty village of Linton (pub). Leave the village green and head out across open fields to join Thorpe Lane. Follow the lane into Thorpe and take the road to the left and follow the lane to the end and turn right and head downhill and make your way back to Burnsall crossing at least 8 stiles over dry stone walls. A welcoming pint then awaits you at the Red Lion in Burnsall.
