All are welcome to come and cheer the ducks on, enjoy one of Yorkshire's most beautiful places, and have a fun afternoon out in glorious sunshine! There is a £6 charge per car to park at Bolton Abbey. In the event of the river becoming too deep to safely race (and catch) ducks in, Bolton Abbey have the right to cancel / postpone the event.
