Richmond to Applegarth

The first part of the walk leads along roads up away from the river and onto a hillside track. After passing through woodland the path descends to the river and the route then stays fairly close to the river on the way back to Richmond. A footbridge leads to the southern bank. In some parts of this path there are slippery rocks to negotiate, with the route being flooded when the river is high (there alternatives further from the river). The route provides stunning views of the castle and of the weir.
