The Great Wolds Valley

The Great Wolds Valley - Kirby Grindalythe - West Lutton Round

Join me as we explore the Great Wolds Valley and the mysterious Gypsy Race, the most northerly chalk stream in the UK. This is a circular walk starting and finishing in the village of Kirby Grindalythe. This is an ‘off the beaten track’ walk in the truest sense, even for the Yorkshire Wolds this is a quiet area, but full of history and mystery.

Start - Kirby Grindalythe, YO17 8DB
