Before You Set Off
Please Note:
Settle, with its wealth of interesting shops, welcoming cafes and historic buildings, is nestled between the Yorkshire Dales and the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that is the Forest of Bowland. Set against the atmospheric backdrop of Castlebergh Crag, this bustling market town is a joy to explore.
This Trail starts and finishes in Market Place in the centre of town and takes in the station and old town with magnificent views.
Warning
The Trail follows some narrow roads and lanes with no pavements, so please take care whilst heading along these and keep an eye out for traffic. There are also some steep sections along the route which might wear you out!
There are some fantastic picnic opportunities and a children's playground along the route. Refreshments are available from the many shops and establishments around the start point of the Trail. Public conveniences are located in Whitefriars Car Park near Market Place.
A detour is suggested in the Trail booklet up to the top of Castlebergh Crag. You could also take a trip on the famous Settle to Carlisle Railway.
There are several car parks in Settle but, at the time of writing, the Greenfoot Town Centre Car Park as detailed in the Trail booklet has the lowest charges. Settle can also be accessed by train and bus.
