Selby to Snaith
Recommended: Great views. Very flat and easy walking: a canal towpath, a good-surfaced path across a former airfield, then open countryside, lanes and tracks and a flood bank and a bridge over the River Aire. Just short stretches of busy and verge-only road. Follows the Trans Pennine Trail across Burn Airfield, which has benches and interpretation boards; you may see gliders taking off and landing.
Time: 4h–7h30
Warnings: A short stretch of busy road at the start, and a section of roadside walking with no pavement on a straight part of Hirst Road. Snaith has only around three trains a day.
Walk details: Slow Ways.
Selby to Goole
Knottingley to Selby
Whitley Bridge to Selby
A mostly arable route along back lanes and field paths. Largely flat. Fields can get very boggy after rain and making footing difficult. Passes through Burn and Kellington.
Time: 4h–8h30
Warnings: Several road crossings are on busy main roads with no footpaths. Multiple barriers to entry. Can be very boggy and slippery underfoot after rain. Whitley Bridge has only around three trains a day. Can be muddy.
