Description:

This is a walk for our registered Walk Leaders only! We are wanting to capture the reason behind why you walk lead and what made you get involved with walk leading etc. This is also an opportunity to share feedback on how we can engage future walk leaders from your own personal experience!

We would also like to give you some updates (from behind the scenes! - really nothing too exciting) that we want to make you aware of! 

If you are one of our wonderful walk leaders, whether that be you have lead 1 walk or over 10 walks, we want you all there. Please do email gybogeneral@gmail.com to inform us that you are coming! 

An 8 mile circular walk starting from Saltergate car park, where we will head towards Skelton Tower, with views of the North York Moors steam railway and the North Yorkshire Moors. We will then drop into the village of Levisham and then back through woodland and finishing within the Hole of Horcum itself.
