	Thornton Steward Type: One Boot Route Length: 1-2 miles
	Thornton Steward provides an ideal opportunity for those looking for a relatively short stroll in the open countryside. The grassy path rotates around Thornton Steward where you can observe sailing boats in warmer months and the local livestock that frequently graze on the reservoir grounds. Please keep your dog on a lead and beware of anglers back casting. The walk is 1 mile long.
	Location Moor Lane, South of Finghall which is off the A684 Leyburn to Bedale Road, North Yorkshire.
	Access Our car park next to the entrance off Moor Lane at the southern end of the reservoir point 1.


	Route Leave the car park through the small gate, point 1 and walk round the reservoir keeping it on your left joining the tarmac road at point 2 and walk across the embankment. At the northern end of the embankment, bear left and climb the hill at point 4 and follow the path down towards the sailing centre at point 5 which you pass on your right and return to the car park via the small gate.
