- A walk around Skipton in North Yorkshire, England.
We take a look at the market town of Skipton Yorkshire to see the Castle, High Street, The Canal and the great shops there!
Skipton is a market town in North Yorkshire just outside of the Yorkshire Dales, and situated on the Leeds to Liverpool canal.
The historic Skipton High Street is a cracking place to have a mooch around the shops and bars and restaurants so we take the cameras and enjoy a walk around a lovely sunny (but cold!) Skipton Town Centre
If you've been to Skipton you will already know how great it is to walk along the canal, and then up Skipton High Street to Skipton Castle so we'll try and recreate the experience for you here!
Have a watch as we wander round Skipton and then at the end leave me a comment down below and tell me where you'd like me to film next!

There’s a great chippy overlooking the canal basin you can see it at the beginning of the video ,eat in or take out ,there’s nothing better than sitting by the side of the canal eating fish & chips ,it’s always our first stop .
Thanks for putting this on your channel. It’s brought back many happy memories of when I visited Skipton with my late wife. You have shown some areas that we never got to see because of her disability
Love Skipton visit every time i go North to see Family and enjoy the great fish and chips …..Best in Yorkshire
That’s so true 👍👍❤️
I was friends with a wonderful man who lived in Skipton. Sadly, he passed away a few months ago, and I miss him dearly. I live in Canada, and never had the opportunity to visit him there, but your video has given me a chance to discover how lovely Skipton is. This was almost like strolling along with him.
Thank you!
That’s why I do what I do
Lovely message thank you so much ❤️
Skipton is a lovely place to visit its a posher than when I was last there.
It's great isn't it!
Oh I love skipton, it’s a great market
Superb!! we will be visiting very soon, Skipton here we come!! Great video.
Welcome back, and a Happy New Year. Looking forward to more videos!
Happy new year!
What a lovely town. Thanks showing us and then Skipton and thank you for those people who suggested it. By the way did you stop for your chocolate and coffee coffee shop you show this
I nipped back after I'd finished filming
I like to walk and film and find the best places, then when I've stopped filming head straight back to the places I've spotted and try them out!
what a nice place to live
I need one of the maps from the vending machine, between sheep st. and the high street. I have seen pics of the castle, but didn't realize it was right in town. LOL! I actually live in the U.S. LOL! I want the map because I would love to have maps from all areas of G.B. In reading the comments, I read you will return to Skipton on a market day. You read my thoughts. I look forward to that visit, when it's a bit warmer for you, of course! You will remember to pick up a map for me, won't you? I think it is really cute. Seriously, I loved the tour. Always wanted to see more of the northern areas. BTW, I always tap the👍 before I watch, because I know it's gonna be great, a bang up good time!
The long boats at the beginning are well looked after. Looks like lots of room. Whole area very nice. So many shops. Great place to spend. Lot of time.thanks.
Yes, thanks Yvonne!
Filmed on my birthday and I have the pleasure of having lived in this beautiful town all my life.
Ah you're lucky - what a beautiful place!
Not to forget one of the greatest pie shops in the country. Go early cause they sell out fast
Great tour! Agree with comment below - shame you missed Otley Street ( where I live ). Thought to mention that most of Skipton is dog friendly so bring your furbies with you. See you soon !!
great video gimbal i must admit it is a lovely place to live and ohhh when you come back you need to take a walk up skipton woods its a lovely walk and great views best leaving it till it warms up abit though
Yeah definitely will do that!
In the summer!
Great to have you back and a great video to kick off with 👍👍 keep on walking 😊🚶🏻
Thank you! 😀
Great walk! I’ve already added Skipton to my list of places to visit soon! Thanks for another lovely tour! 👏😄👍
You're welcome!
The town was quiet as it was freezing and winter but I bet it comes alive in summer!
I'l go back and film it then too!
Love Skipton, great town
It is!
Good to see you ( shadow) back. Skipton looked lovely & although cold would suit me. Lots of history & shops without being in your face & tacky.
Very true!
Will go back in summer and do a more in-depth one I think!
hello gimbal walk tv, and a happy new year, had my notification on, and here i am ready to enjoy another visually, informative, enjoyable vid!
Thanks, you too!
I was literally in Skipton as your were filming this.
Crazy it popped up on my newsfeed.
ha ha no way! did you spot yourself?
@@GimbalWalkTV no unfortunately. Lol.
It's just mad. Just came back and I see this pop up on my feed.
I love Skipton
Am gonna film it again in summer and on market day too!
Beautiful place well looked after ,lovely looking pubs thanks for the video.
❤️❤️
So happy you decided to go to Skipton! 💕
Me too! Lovely place!
Hey mate great vlog never been too Skipton I think I must go looks wonderful thanku 💯💯
Glad you enjoyed mate! thanks for watching!
Hope you are safe and well!
We love Skipton..fab day out x
So true
Stayed in Skipton many times, it’s lovely and very quaint.
Can i ask where you stayed.
You should do a tour of Skipton woods it is my favourite place to walk especially in spring/summer time it's so beautiful with all the flowers.
Great idea! Will do!
Very good video keep up the good work
Just love watching these videos 🤣
Thanks Jean! Really appreciate that you do!
Happy New Year to you. Another great video. I'd like to see you recommend and visit inside a Pub or Cafe on a separate video? That would be a useful guide for anyone visiting these towns.
I have been to Skipton many times it’s a lovely place. I think Ulverston is another little town well worth a visit.
Definitely am going to do there ❤️❤️
Great place...some shops have gone Which is a shame but still holding its authenticity just... lovely canal good market lovely independent shops
True
A most amazing Castle...very interesting and intact
I've filmed a walk around it - it should be out this week sometime once I've edited it
Someone still lives there don't they too!
Love skipton walk this route through the church grounds to get to work. At Sbs 😊
Ah nice! The Church grounds are so peaceful too!
More requested places being filmed so where should I go and film next?
If your still in the area Barnoldswick is only down the road.
Malton for food, Pickering for North Yorks Moors railway, Driffield for Sweet shop, Beverley for old world charm. Most of these have easy parking at this time of year.
Lovely town,enjoyed the walk.Thank you.
Thank you too
Hi there , market day is also on a Monday too , so it's Monday Wednesday Friday and Saturday
And we have Christmas markets on the first two Sundays in Dec, it's beautiful at that time of year, thanks mark
Such a lovely walk! Thank you
Thank you too
Never been to Skipton and I'm wondering why, it looks a beautiful town. Thanks GW TV.
Was my first time too
Bet it’s fab In summer!
Just catching up on your latest videos. Skipton looks lovely and great to hear there are a lot of independent shops going strong! 😊
It really is!
……and the usual groupings of national retail chains to be found on any High Street.
Absolutely stunning and magnificent 💯
❤️❤️❤️❤️
nice walk a very nice place to visit have you ever been to covelly very steep steps well worth a look
Would love to have a walk around Saltaire .thank you .
We have both passed by Skipton lots of times not actually realising how much a visit it's worth, thanks for informing us with your video.
Thinking of moving to Skipton so watched the video to get a feel for the place. Also thinking about moving to NORWICH so would love to see a walk there.
Ah yes Norwich - I really need to get that filmed! Watch this space - I'll sort that!
Lovely tour of our beautiful town, thank you! Shame you missed out the Canal Basin and two great shopping streets - Otley Street and Newmarket Street but I guess it would have made the video too long. How about Grassington next?
I’m going to return to film a more in-depth one once it gets a bit sunnier (and on a market day too)
Yeah have done Grassington - what a lovely little place that is!
Thank you. For taking me for a walk down memorial lane of my home town I loved hearing my native dialect spoken I miss it so much. Greetings from Australia. happy New Year 🍾🥂
@@ellymay1455 Happy New Year!
I recognised it when getting to the Black Horse Pub where we had a conference and went round the castle. I also went for a trip on the canal. Yes it is a nice area.
On Market day it's jammers.Lot's of fab stalls and busy
I'll be back to film a market day - gutted I didnt' know what days they were on before I arrived there - I'd have scheduled it for a market day if I had!
Great vid Gimbal. Went to Skipton once in the summer. Loads of market stalls and a visit to the Castle. I can recommend the Fish & Chips from the shop in your video ( Bizzie Lizzie’s). Going to go again this summer.
Thanks Brian! Good to hear the fish and chips were good! Can't beat fish and chips!
Welcome back and Happy New Year! Your subs have grown! Good job! Skipton seems lovely. Great town for shoppers it seems. Looking forward for the castle tour! Take care :)
Thank you! You too!
If you are ever in the Skipton area again I highly reccomend you visit Settle! A beautiful gem of a town!
Now that's a cracking recommendation - I've just added that to my list of places to film so watch this space as I'll head there soon!
@@GimbalWalkTV hidden gems in settle include scalebor force waterfall 🤩
Hello Gimbel walk Neil happy new year to you love your videos and I know that you have a lot coming up in Twenty two from Lynn take care stay Safe 😁🙏
Happy new year! Thanks Lynn! You too!
Great vid right on our doorstep, must pay a visit. And what about Todmorden and the peace Hall?
Oh an what about Ossett
Happy New Year! Hope you had an enjoyable holidays.
Thank you - happy new year to you too!
Have a great 2022
I've never seen Skipton so calm 😳
I picked a good day 🤣🤣
Looks like it still has character nice.
Definitely!
Another great & fantastic video of SKIPTON TOWN CENTRE!. Can i suggest Oundle.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕👍👍👍👍
Never heard of Oundle, were is this please
Oh the Wholly Sheep..amazing food
You're not alone on that one - so many people telling me the same! Gonna have to try it!
We love skipton but always go on a Saturday sand if it's past 9.30 am can never get parked so we must try in the week.
I would like to see weston super mare never been interested in seeing what it's like ,also Wales only been to Tenby which we loved like to see dome other places there. Thanks for your hard work
As a bus fan and a lifelong Skipton I can assure you there are regular buses to and from Skipton up until 11.40pm on Saturday nights so parking needn't be an issue! 👍Enjoy your next visit 😃
@@YorkshireBusGuy thank you for your help if we ever stay near skipton I will look into that but it takes us near 2 hours to drive there so the only way is in the car
Some great ideas there - will do those for sure for you!
I have been to Skipton its a very nice place 😌 ☺ 😊
It really is!
Hello, great video, please can you do walk round bingley?
Yes I can!
Thanks a lot mate!
Make sure to go in summer and get an ice cream from Tarquins Tearooms in Myrtle Park in Bingley.
It’s in the town centre :)
Can't inmagin what the Traffic like in the summer
Great vlog thank you. Happy New year, looking forward to watching your new ones 🙂 Have you done one on Withernsea? 😊
No not yet but just jotted it down as I fancy doing that one thank you for the suggestion!
I'm good thanks - it's just very cold at the moment isnt it!
@@GimbalWalkTV Yes it is rather cold, I'm not at my happiest in winter I must admit so I really appreciate your videos. Keep wrapped up and keep safe 😊
Thankfully not too far from where i live..lovely district...Craven
Ashamed to say I didnt' even know 'craven' even existed till I filmed this!
I'm still not sure what it is or what areas it covers!
I need to google it!
Look forward to going in June this year with bf xxx
Can you visit Porlock? It's a lovely, lovely village!!!
I was in the back of the police van unfortunately. The day was Tuesday 4th January at 2pm. There was only a bit of snow covering the hills but in Harrogate there was plenty of snow.
True!
@@GimbalWalkTV I saw you with the camera. I've just started watching your video's. Interesting.
@@paulharrison9632 Ah welcome!
Do Keighley please i love it
If my mind thinks hard it used to be in west riding & if i remember skipton gets it name known as sheeps town & i went there every two weeks from bradford
Thinking of visiting Skipton ..
Would i/we be able to see everything in the town aswell as the castle in just one day???
Yes definitely if you arrived early / mid morning
@@GimbalWalkTV Thank you 😊
u should have looked into all the great bakeries and butchers too :)
I will next time for sure!
@@GimbalWalkTV well worth sampling, most are 'award winning' and bordering on continental quality :)
Parking on market days is a bit more difficult and Saturdays can be a nightmare. Tuesday is halfday so quite
So excited to see your latest video. Question: what font did you use for your graphics?
Oooh good question! Avenir I think!
May I suggest Cottingham and Hessle both in East Yorkshire.😁
Definitely -thank you for the suggestion
Not too far from me either but I've not been to them yet!
The market is on on a Monday, too.
Thanks Malcolm - I'm going to head back there and film a market day I think!
I’m in this 😭😭😭
ha ha no way! You should have waved (or stuck two fingers up) 🤣
Can you go to Hebden Bridge if possible, not sure how big it is for you though
Lives in Skipton :)
Great place! Can’t wait to go back in summer !
Skipton in Yorkshire in England 🏴 in the UK 🇬🇧.
Oh yes
What holiday cottages are in the area of the town thank you
Not sure!
Oundle is in Northamtonshire.
👍🏻
Haworth is worth your attention.
Oh yes! Have done Haworth - love it there! Going back soon!
@@GimbalWalkTV It is lovely
How about Kings Lynn Norfolk
Yes definitely heading there Trevor!
Better with the music and you missed the pie shop Lol .
50% of people prefer music and 50% prefer it without 🤣
When I put music on I got nothing but grief from people and shouted at for music spoiling the natural sound!
Anyone reccomend a hoteel in the town centre
Shame it was not a market day it would have been busy ..
Yeah will time it better next time!
A bit of description would have helped
Next time 👍👍👍❤️
Manchester without the Christmas Market
Definitely going to do that Stuart - in fact a series of Manchester videos are on the way!
why not show the over side of the coin like castleford how run down and neglected and forgotten ex mineing town or is this not in your criterea and best forgotten about .
I just show what I walk past
Lovely stroll, but a very tactical use of a thumbnail.
ok
Return on a saturday night, all the puking and fighting will put you off 🤮
😮😮😮
Great shops? I'm from skipton and it's full of charity, discount and not much else unless you want a coffee!! Sorry skipton started losing it about 10 years ago.
I hear the same thing in every town I visit to be fair - maybe it's just how things are these days
@@GimbalWalkTV Yes, anywhere there is a Tesco store in the town is the same as Skipton.
Skipton not half as good as a few years back, it's a little sad now, not a lot to do tbh.
Pity half of Newcastle come down to spoil it.
How do you mean?
