ride2stride Settle-Carlisle Walking Festival: 25th April – 1st May 2017
Mainland Britain’s Best Walking Festival is Back – Bigger & Better Than Ever!
Recently named mainland Britain’s best walking festival by The Telegraph, ride2stride is a festival of walks, talks and music along the fabulous Settle-Carlisle railway line – hikers can join in the celebrations of the reopening of the full length of the world-famous Settle-Carlisle Railway Line.
It’s a week long celebration of the wonderful landscape and culture of the western Dales and Eden Valley.
The festival is made up of lots of events and activities and things will be happening along the length of the line. Walks will be led from stations by experienced walk leaders. Speakers will share their local knowledge and love of the area, and the pubs will be buzzing with music and song.
ride2stride is for everyone who loves the Yorkshire Dales. Whether you travel to an event by train, live along the line or book your holiday to take advantage of the festival, you’ll have a great time.
