Walks in West Yorkshire
A stone’s throw from the Yorkshire Dales, Lake District, and Peak District National Parks, West Yorkshire is a paradise for keen walkers. Nestled in the Upper Calder Valley, there are some lovely rural walks around Hebden Bridge, inviting you to explore the famous setting for the BBC’s beloved crime drama, Happy Valley. Ilkley Moor is home to a tangle of trails perfect for all walking abilities, while the dramatic moorland surrounding Harworth promises strolls steeped in literary magic as you follow in the footsteps of the Brontë sisters. West Yorkshire is also home to some lovely flat walks, whether it’s along the banks of a gently flowing canal or following the tracks of a disused railway line. Wherever your feet take you, you’re in for a breathtaking treat!
