The Liquorish Mine Yorkshire Dales Hike

Patley Bridge #patleybridge #yorkshiredales #hikesinthedales

A plesant hike from Patley Bridge up to the old mines and back.

Boots on the ground and this time we are in the beautiful area of Patley bridge, where our 6.5 mile hike starts for the oldest sweet shop in England, hence the name the Liquorish Mine Hike. While there is some road hiking to be had on this hike, it is on quiet remote c roads so traffic will be almost none existent you may see the odd tractor pass you as you say hello to the sheep in the fields.

Any parts of the hike where you might take a wrong turn I have taken pictures to show you the correct way on the trail. There is also a GPX file for you to download listed below as well. Thats enough for now, if you have questions then please get in touch. Andy.
