Country Living Magazine Name Upper Wharfedale As One Of Their Top Eight Places For A Wildlife Walk

Country Living Magazine name Upper Wharfedale in the Yorkshire Dales as one of their top eight places for a wildlife walk.

"The beautiful, undulating landscape of the Yorkshire Dales contains limestone pavement, glaciated valleys and flower-rich hay meadows, interwoven with hillside streams and dry stone walls which combine to create a fertile habitat for wildlife.

The roadsides bloom throughout the year with wildflowers such as sweet cicely, blue meadow crane’s bill, melancholy thistles, yellow rattle and the carnivorous common butterwort. The hay meadows are also filled with wild flowers and are particularly spectacular in late spring and summer." Source: Country Living Magazine.
