Experience the magic of the night sky at a Dark Skies event at Grimwith Reservoir, near Grassington. Join us for a welcoming, accessible evening walk led by qualified Mountain Leaders, designed to be suitable for all-terrain wheelchairs—with the opportunity to bring your own. We’ll meet at the Yacht Club at 5:30pm for a 6:00pm start, setting off on a gentle 4-mile circular route beneath some of the clearest skies in the Dales. After the walk, warm up with a hot supper at the Yacht Club, featuring jacket potatoes with a choice of fillings, along with hot drinks and cake. Accessible toilets are available inside the Yacht Club, ensuring a comfortable, inclusive, and thoroughly enjoyable evening for everyone.
Date: Friday 27 February 2026 5:00 PM - 9:00 PM (UTC+00)
