A new 42 mile Yorkshire Heritage Way recreational trail between Bradford and Ripon Cathedrals is officially launching on Friday 29th April at Bradford Cathedral.

The trail links the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Saltaire and Fountains Abbey as well as passing through stunning countryside in Bradford District and North Yorkshire.

The event also marks the start of a guided four day inaugural walk of the trail beginning immediately after the launch ceremony at 10am. Finishing at Ripon Cathedral on Monday 2nd May, the walk coincides with the 1350th celebration of the founding of the Cathedral, and walkers will be invited, should they wish on arrival, to participate in the Beer Festival taking place that day as part of the weekend of festivities.
