Cultural Experiences
YORKSHIRE WOLDS WAY – NATIONAL TRAILS
Saturday 13th September 2025
Huggate to Millington | 11.5 miles | Approx. 5–6 hours
Grade: Moderate
This September, we’re heading to a lesser-known corner of Yorkshire to walk part of the
Yorkshire Wolds Way,
one of the UK’s official
National Trails
, and a truly peaceful hidden gem.
In partnership with
National Trails UK
, this guided circular hike will take us through dry chalk valleys, open farmland, and quiet countryside views that stretch for miles.
Starting and ending in
Huggate,
the highest village on the Yorkshire Wolds, we’ll pass through
Millington
, a charming village known for its beautiful woodlands, scenic walking routes, and historic buildings.
This route includes a mix of undulating trails and field tracks. It’s ideal for hikers looking to explore somewhere new, enjoy some rural Yorkshire magic, and stretch themselves a little beyond an entry-level walk.
North Yorkshire Weekend Series
This hike is part of our
North Yorkshire Weekend Series
, with two special events taking place across the same weekend:
Saturday 13th Sept
– Yorkshire Wolds Way (Huggate)
Sunday 14th Sept
– Wainstones Circular (North York Moors)
Why not join us for one , or both, and make a weekend of exploring Yorkshire’s best trails?
Part of Our 5-Year Celebration
This hike is part of our
5-year anniversary series
, celebrating five years since Muslim Hikers first launched as an online Instagram page, a community that has since grown into a global movement for inclusion, representation, and joy in the outdoors.
Come walk with us and be part of the journey.
