9 miles over Otley Chevin

This event will open for bookings on Friday 6h June. We are trialling delayed booking for all day walks in the Northeast and Yorkshire Region to reduce waiting lists and late cancellations. We know that a significant number of members who book places on our walks eventually decide not to attend the event. This causes long waiting lists and makes it harder for those who wish to attend an event to obtain a place. If you are interested in attending this event, please click the ‘bookmark’ button to add this page to your list of bookmarked events. This will make it easier for you to find the page when the event opens for bookings. 

Join us for a slow paced 9 mile walk  around Otley Chevin, with panoramic views over the beautiful market town of Otley,  which has rich history of human settlement stretching back into Palaeolithic times.. The walk is easily accessible by public transport as it begins and ends at a train station.

The dramatic surroundings of Otley Chevin include panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and its gritstone escarpment which provided the foundations of the Houses of Parliament.

Wildlife-wise there is a chance to spot Red Kites and Buzzards and on top of the Chevin are Insta-worthy views. 

Your First OutdoorLads Event?

OutdoorLads Foundation

Fancy coming along but having a difficult time of it (for whatever reason), and/or finding it hard to justify the expense? Apply for a place on this event through the OutdoorLads Foundation! Nobody apart from staff members will know and we don't need lots of financial info from you either. To apply through the Foundation, you'll need to complete a very short form, which can be found along with more information here.

Dogs: well-behaved dogs are welcome on the walk, but must be under control at all times on a lead where necessary and you should abide by the Countryside Code. Please also remember not everyone loves dogs as much as you do.
