3. Take a walk on the wild side
Hiking in the beautiful ‘Great Outdoors’ doesn’t have to be intimidating. The Yorkie Talkies Walking Group are friendly, welcoming and on the lookout for new members.
Their walks explore the most beautiful parts of the north, as close as the gentle hills around Castle Howard and as far as the top of the mighty Tryfan in Snowdonia. They have a hike to suit everyone.
The YTWG team would love to welcome both new and seasoned walkers to the growing family.
