Morning All!
In a couple of weeks I am off to the Vale of York for a chilling relaxing holiday. However I have never been further north than Milton Keynes, so can anyone point me in good places around the Vale Of York area to photograph?


Many Thanks
Dave
 
Well York itself of course the Shambles,Walls,Minster,River etc then it depends how far you are travelling but you may want to think of Castle Howard, Haworth with the Bronte museum and the Worth Valley Railway and of course loads of picturesque landscapes throughout the area.By the way do you have your passport to enter Yorkshire
 
Other then York it self there are other places near by, Harrogate, Knasbrough, then there is also Leeds, the dales, and moors the coast, Whitby and so forth. Lots to see and do. Have a nice visit.
 
Wher in the vale are you staying? How far are you willing to travel? Millington Dale is a pretty little spot for a wander. From York way on you are in spitting distance of the moors and dales really. Tonnes to see up there.
 
Thanks for the comments. Im staying in a hoeseasons lodge, not really sure where abouts in the vale till I leave (trusty sat nav!)

From all your feedback I'll pretty much be in landscape heaven :thumbs:

Noooooo! Thats Lancashire!!!
 
If you get up early and find a good vantage point you might just get to see a fantastic low level mist across the vale of York itself, well worth getting up for.

You also have the Cleveland Hills, North York Moors (and its railway) and the East Yorks coast. You could spend years shooting all that stuff.
 
Try Rosebury Topping (further up in north yorkshire) - great views - and try the white horse of kilburn and/or Sutton Bank - great views and a healthy walk. Beware on Sutton Bank though; first gear is a must as it's massively steep ;)

Also, try Dalby Forest as you head past Scarborough up to Whitby and of course, don't ignore the city walls in York; fabulous views of the city and a really good fun.
 
Thanks for all the infomation, printing it all off and taking it with us :)

quiet "relaxing" time away with the missus (and the camera lol) :thumbs:
