ValleyMoorland
A flowing dale road through classic Yorkshire countryside.
The A684 threads the length of Wensleydale through Hawes and the market towns, a relaxed run between drystone walls and green fells. It is gentle by Dales standards but the villages, livestock and visitors all call for an easy pace.
