August 16, 2022,Kettlewell to Starbotton Loop

Pleasant, straight forward walk following the Dales Way from Kettlewell to Starbotton. Then the return on the opposite side of the valley. This time, higher up the hillside for a different view. Obviously followed by a refreshing pint back in Kettlewell.
