IT IS now possible to take a virtual reality journey in the Yorkshire Dales.
The first ‘Google Expedition’ to be set in the national park has been created by Settle Stories and takes viewers on a journey from Settle Market Place to Victoria Cave, with 360-degree images of the route.
It was supported by a grant of almost £5,000 from the National Park Authority’s Sustainable Development Fund.
The experience has also been shared with local school-children and elderly people in care homes with the addition of immersive headsets.
Download the Google Expedition app to take the journey.
