What is Dalesrail?
DalesRail is a leisure service aimed at walkers and those wanting a special day out. DalesRail offers unrivalled opportunities to experience some of the most scenic countryside in England, to visit a variety of lovely small towns and villages with plenty of places to enjoy fresh air, a meal or a drink and all without having to take the car! There is an exciting and extensive guided walk programme and a comprehensive series of coach links that extend the places that can be visited using DalesRail. The DalesRail Country series of leaflets covers Appleby and Carlisle and soon there will be new ones for Wensleydale and Hadrian’s Wall. DalesRail also welcomes cyclists on board.
What does it cost?
DalesRail has special fares tailored to help make this as cheap a day out as possible. For example, the DalesRail Duo enables two people to travel together and save money!! One person pays the full return fare and the goes for half price.
