Dog-friendly walks in Burnsall

A tidy two and a quarter miles in an hour, up the Dales Way from Burnsall bridge beneath the limestone cliff of Loup Scar to the Hebden suspension bridge, crossing there and returning on the opposite bank. Start from the riverside car park by Burnsall bridge, which is pay-and-display and fills early on summer weekends; there are toilets and the Red Lion is a few yards away. Good short walk for an older dog on level meadow paths, with easy shingle access to the Wharfe by the bridge for a paddle, but sheep are in most fields, several stiles are narrow stone squeezes, and the path runs along the unfenced top of Loup Scar above a deep channel.
