I've just been told that I need to go to Harrogate for three days next week. I hope to get out for a couple of runs and wondered if any of you have recommendations for routes near there. I'll likley be on the train so a run from the town would be best. Also, any good bike / running shops to visit and any good places to scoff? Cheers.

Lovely place ,loads of places to eat.
I cannot recall the name but ther is a lovely restaurent halfway down the bank near "Bettys".
It looks out onto the gardens.
All will be clear when you are there!
Take a mortgage out first.
Have you been ? Do you know if it's any good?
I've been to the harrogate spa too - its really good isnt it!
I ve been to betty's at ilkley last year before the badger stone relay!
Plenty of hilly-ish routes out west but not sure how accessible by public transport - alternatively could get train to Knaresborough and run back along Harrogate Ringway and alongside the Nidd Gorge to Bilton(NE Harrogate).
ooops so I am!!!
but of course Harrogate is also the home of the wonderful Daleside (the brewery not the forumite!!)

I was just too lazy to find the link. But must watch out for the beer fest next year.
a grand idea - isn't Skipton on whitsun w/e?
anyway to prove we're not totally hijacking the thread I have contact details for a member (ex-committee member) of Nidd Valley Runners in Harrogate - if you want them Downsman PM me.
I must get on to my marketing team! i trust when you put 'daleside' in google, you didnt find a load of random ramblings on fellrunner.org.uk!!!!!
