This is a flat 8 mile walk around Drax power station. There are some interesting views of the power station but there is also plenty of woodland and open land.

Take the A1041 south away from Selby.
Follow the road for approx 2 miles and turn left onto Barlow road.
(do not take the 1st left to Barlow which is just 1/2 mile from the A63 roundabout)
1/2 mile down Barlow road look for a left turn into a tree lined lane. 
The carpark is 50 yards down the lane.
(If you reach Barlow then you have gone too far!)

There are toilets at Barlow Common near to the parking.
