Are Skipton Boat Trips wheelchair accessible?

Yes, to an extent.

  • There are 4-5 steps to access the vessel which may be inaccessible to users. 
  • The outdoor areas are uneven, with paving slabs and cobblestones. 
  • Wheelchairs and walkers must be stored near the boat entrance or at Skipton Boat Trips office due to limited space on the vessel. 

Once onboard, the ground of the boat remains even.

Primarily, yes! Skipton Boat Trips warmly welcomes furry friends on board, but there are some guidelines to follow.

  • Dogs are welcome on the Cobbydale canal cruiser for one hour trips.
  • They are also permitted on day boats.

However, dogs are not permitted on the Dalesman cruiser, due to food being served.
