We walked from Grassington Village, to the National park centre then along the public bridal ways and back again. In total I think it was around an hour, lovely easy walk. The is so cool! Impressive to photograph and a bit nausea inducing to across. A must see… park on the Main Street at Hebden, then follow the signs down towards the fields and it’ll take about 10-15 mins to get there. Once you’ve past the house, cross the road and join the field opposite. You’ll see the ahead! It’s fun crossing over and even better when you return via the stepping stones!! Lovely suspension bridge. I walked from Grassington along the river to it, which is about 2 miles, then the same back. Great novelty walking along the bridge, particularly as it wobbles! There's also a set of stepping stones there, but they were partly blocked by a fallen tree. Fun choice of the suspension or the nearby stepping stones ....or both. Single width was my choice . Bit of a sway with the wind! A very nice and peaceful along the side of the river. The view from the Center of the is breath taking. Plenty of wildlife and the trees 🌲 on there own are well worth a visit. Most of the is along a treated surface so it is easy. The is narrow and sways when walked over. One of my 🐕 didn’t like it. Fantastic river from Grassington to Hebden Bridge. This is flat and fairly easy to navigate with a few gates to negotiate probably best suited to having walking boots. Monday 11th November 2024 The Hebden Suspension in North Yorkshire was built in 1885 by William Bell, the local blacksmith, and is a notable landmark on the river-side path. The was built after a local man drowned while crossing the stepping stones on the River Wharfe below Hebden. The was funded by public subscription and made from recycled materials, including 262 yards of redundant steel rope from the Hebden Moor Mining Company. The was officially opened in 1885 with a public tea and a brass band. In 1937, the was damaged in a heavy flood and the central supporting pier was removed. The National Park Authority recently refurbished the bridge. The is now a popular public footpath. The base of the central supporting pier can still be seen in low water conditions. Well worth a visit. Visited on a very wet and windy day, didn't go all the way across the bridge, not sure who maintains it but some of the slats looked a little rotten Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
