We begin our walk along the banks of the River Wharfe in Boston Spa before crossing Wharfe Bridge and heading for the delightful village of Thorp Arch, which should be looking lovely with Spring flowers. Leaving the village behind we pick up the disused railway track (now a cycle path) towards Wetherby race course, before turning left to pass Flint Mill and follow the Ebor Way back to Thorp Arch and Boston Spa, where there are plenty of options for refreshment. The walk is mostly on paths and quiet roads although there is an unavoidable road section along Wood Lane as we return into Boston Spa. This should be a fairly dry, flat route, however walking boots are essential and a pole is recommended. The walk should take around 2 hours.
