Staying at a camp site in Cropton forest this weekend for the World cup – is there a nice little linking route from Cropton to Dalby?

Ta very much 🙂

Yep.
But whereabouts in Cropton are you staying?
If you're at Muffles or Keldy, then head into Stape then follow the main road to Seavy Slack then hang a left onto a forest road down to Low Raindale and Yorfalls wood. Turn right once you hit the tarmacced section of the forest drive then folow it to Levisham Station. Keep following the road up and out to Levisham and then to Lockton. Once in Lockton, head to the main road A169 and then cross over and down a farm track which brings you out at Low Staindale, then follow the forest drive up to Adderstone and the event village.

Thats the "quick" route, if you want more scenic, there's plenty of routes to follow and OS Landranger Map 94 is your friend 🙂

bw and forest drive up to high muffles
cross the stape road, lane across staindale head
