Description
This is a shorter and more direct version of RipBor(one). It does not leave the river bank to go into the village of Bishop Monkton and so misses out on a potential refreshment opportunity a the village does have a pub. Also between the A1(M) and Roecliffe this route does not divert to the south along the footpaths around the lakes. Rather it stays alongside the road which always has a pavement on at least one side. These changes make for a more direct and shorter walk

07 Jan 2024I walked this route after a long period of heavy rain with many fields across the country flooded. although alongside the river Ure for much of the route the way was quite a pleasant and easy walk. There was one particular are through trees where care was needed because of the flooding. But usually this would be no problem. This walk does miss out on the chance to go into Bishop Monkton for refreshment and does not take you around the lakes at Roecliffe, but follows the pavement at the side of Bar Lane. The walk was however very pleasant, I always felt safe and it easy to navigate.
