## What is Yorkshire Dales National Park?

There are many different ways to access and enjoy walks in the Yorkshire Dales National Park and this app includes 35 of our favourites, developed with our National Park Rangers. 

There are walks of differing lengths, created to suit all abilities and taking in stunning woodlands, peaceful riversides, the Dales’ iconic hills, limestone scenery and dramatic waterfalls.

These GPS-enabled walks are located right across the National Park and include a number of accessible ‘Miles without Stiles’ routes. 

We’ve also included a handy key with each to help you decide which to do next, plus links to important information to help you plan your visit, and guidance on staying safe in the countryside.

So all that’s left to do is to enjoy your walk, and remember to respect the land, respect the community, and respect each other. Thank you!

### 3/5 — Not practical to use without car

*2026-05-12, version 1.6*

It says to use public transport but there is no way of filtering for walks near train stations, the train stations and railway lines aren’t on the map, and it sometimes says to take the bus but doesn’t say much else or link to bus company website. 
I looked at two example walks and they seemed to be straight lines rather than circular.
Positive side: it’s a very clean-looking and easy to use app. The symbols that are there are good - e.g., you can see if it goes past a pub.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2025-05-04, version 1.6*

So grateful for the app! Amazing to have all the walks with relevant tags/categories and proper info in one place!

### 5/5 — An excellent companion

*2025-04-16, version 1.6*

Was looking for a walking app whilst travelling to the dales for consecutive weekends. The ease of usage and the following of the routes made the walks far more enjoyable as these are not necessarily public footpaths so very informative and simple to follow.

### 5/5 — Great app and walks

*2025-04-14, version 1.6*

We used this on a holiday recently in Gayle. The walks provided are excellent, we adapted the Hawes ones. The overlay of your position helps greatly to find the turns and paths to take. Throughly recommended.

### 5/5 — Super useful easy app

*2023-10-18, version 1.3*

I downloaded the app before visiting the National Park at the end of October 2023 rather than buying maps. Super easy to use although the routes I have walked were well used and marked but good to have a backup

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-05-30, version 1.3*

Great app very helpful as it guides you directly to a car park. On the walks section, would be good to be able to see where they are on a map for reference

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-03-04, version 1.3*

Over 30 walks we’ll set out for free. Fantastic.

### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2022-08-02, version 1.3*

Downloaded this to check out the “miles without styles” walks claimed, but these were impossible to pick out without looking at the details of each walk. Once discovered this accessibility information wasn’t to be trusted, e.g. Smardale Gill was listed as limited accessibility when in fact this is one of the most accessible walks in the dales along an old railway line that is smooth and gently graded. App needs improvement to be useful and trusted.

### 5/5 — Easy to use and helpful

*2022-06-13, version 1.3*

Used this to plan alternative walks than we’d initially intended to do as when we got to the dales we were struck down by a bug & had to ‘downsize’. Maps were great because alternative paths the the suggested routes were able to be viewed & this enabled a shortcut to be taken on one walk where the intention outstretched the energy available! Will use again and have recommended to others visiting the area.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-01-24, version 1.2*

Downloaded this app after seeing it mentioned on social media a few weeks ago. Well just spent a week in the Dales and this app performed perfectly. Lots of info and walks we’d never have though of doing. Can’t wait to get up there again in October to do some more of the walks. A recommended download 👍 no downside to having this app if visiting the Yorkshire Dales.
