I don't know if it is widely known here that the Friends of Dalesrail have 1 or 2 free guided volunteer walks each Saturday from trains usually on the Settle to Carlisle rail line throughout the year.
There are no catches and please note this is a totally non tipping scenario (that is not an option and not a matter to be discussed). These walks are for the public good.
Details are here-https://friendsofdalesrail.org/walks.html
Sometimes the walks are on other local lines- especially the Skipton to Carnforth line
Dalesrail was a former summer seasonal Sunday walkers special rail service which ran from Blackpool to Carlisle (originally also with a 2nd train from Manchester), and the walks ran in connection with the train. However due to challenges in crewing the trains they were withdrawn after the pandemic. Many of the smaller stations on the line were closed for many years, and were thereafter only used for the Dalesrail service. Eventually they re-opened for general use due to the great success of Dalesrail.
A part (and very successful) replacement for Dalesrail is the new Yorkshire Dales Explorer train, a Saturday only service direct from the Manchester area to Settle and Ribblehead (with connections at Ribblehead for Carlisle).
This has now been confirmed as being a year round train, and is on normal rail fares. For anyone in the Manchester area this is a very good opportunity for a visit to the Dales.
