Our drawing of the route — the shape of the walk, not a navigation aid. Carry OS Explorer on the hill. Off-lead information here is what walkers reported or what signage allows — never our advice. Whether and when a dog is off the lead is the owner’s decision and legal responsibility; keep dogs under control near livestock and follow signs on the day.

Starts at

YO10 4FA

Directions to the start →

A flat two-and-a-half mile circuit of the Ouse floodplain meadows on the east bank below the Millennium Bridge, out along the water and back by the field edge to Fordlands Road, and an easy hour and a quarter at dog pace with no stiles and nothing you could call a climb. Start from Fordlands Road or Broadway in Fulford and drop down to the river; the number 6 bus runs along Fulford Road every few minutes from the city centre. Cattle graze the ings through the summer and a cow with a calf is the single most dangerous thing a dog walker meets in this patch, so read the field before you unclip and give any herd a wide berth; the Ouse gives a strong swimmer a dip, but these are working washlands and the meadows can sit under water for weeks after winter rain.
