Our walk gives great views of Swaledale, and plenty of opportunities to hear and see a variety of moorland birds. Starting and finishing at the ruins of the smelting mill at Surrender Bridge, we walk over rough moorland and along valley paths to illustrate the landscape in which local farmers work, and the industrial past of the hamlets through which we pass. Over the last 40 years there have been major changes in farming in Swaledale affecting the food we eat, and the landscape that we live in. En route we visit Hazel Brow Farm in Low Row, a farm that has sought to adapt and diversify, and hear from its owner how they have coped with the ever-changing demands and the impact this has had on the lives of people in the area and on the countryside through which we walk.

Meet at The Station Car Park 9.15am
