Highlight • Trail

Quiet a nice place to go for a walk/hike. Due to being quiet flat great for a more leisurely stroll. Part of trail around the fields is overgrown so small dogs might not have the best time.

A steep climb out of Millington for those that enjoy lactic acid :) , but the reward is the view at the top.

Sylvan Dale

Highlight • Viewpoint

Sylvan Dale is my favourite place in the Yorkshire Wolds — it’s amazingly winding and undulating. It seems to be getting better every time I visit.

July 4, 2024,Blaze Trails N. Yorks- Millington: Wolds and Minster way loop

A baby carrier loop out of the village of Millington. Starts with a steep climb up Minster way in a field out of the village, across to top, passing Sylvan dale.

You could make it a shorter 5-6km loop by returning to village after crossing Millington Beck/ Wood gate road or the bridle path parallel to Millgate wood.
