Avon Walk Trail

Take a relaxed walk along the Avon River and discover stories of York’s early riverside industries. Following a gentle two-kilometre trail, your guide will share tales of the tanneries that processed hides, the blacksmiths who kept wagons and farm tools working, and the aerated water bottle factory that supplied refreshing drinks to locals and travellers.

This easy walk offers a fascinating glimpse into York’ s working past through local stories and places along the river.
