Walk York’s City Walls
York, United Kingdom

A walk along the city walls gives you a different perspective on York, looking across gardens, rooftops and the streets below. Take a section at a time, dropping back into the centre for lunch or a museum rather than rushing the whole route. The elevated stretches involve steps and narrow paths, and some edges are unguarded. Check weather-related closures before setting out; the wall-top route is unsuitable for pushchairs, and dogs are restricted to assistance dogs.
