The road then turns into Hartlington Moor Lane, which goes up to Grimwith Reservoir.

Hartlington is one of the contenders for the smallest and least populous village in the Yorkshire Dales, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for its outstanding natural beauty – and even though it is small, it and the surrounding villages are at the centre of attention of hikers and tourists. Hartlington is home to Burnsall Park, which is a very popular spot for tourists and residents of the nearby towns and villages to visit and relax on the banks of the River Wharfe. In 2022, the park went viral on the social media platform TikTok, which has caused the park to receive an influx of customers.
