Walk: Haworth Moor and Top Withins
A hearty moorland walk past Lower Laithe Reservoir and over Haworth Moor to the abandoned stone farmhouse of Top Withins. The Route what3words for start point: ///flute.model.aunts Start / Finish Point: Lay by car park area Cemetery Road, Haworth, BD22 8EN Distance: 6.2 Miles GPX Route Map walkshirehaworthtotopwithensDownload Walk Description From the layby car park on Cemetery Road in Haworth, with the bench in front of you, turn right, and walk towards the cemetery. At the gate on the right, take the public footpath that runs initially parallel to the road, but then starts to move away to the right. Follow this path to go past a works on the right to reach Reservior Road. Here, Lower Laithe Reservoir will be straight in front of you. Turn right and follow the road along the top of the embankment, and then up to Sun Lane. Turn left, and walk through the village of Stanbury - taking care as the pavements often disappear! Carry on past the village school and out of the village past the traffic calming islands. At the road junction, veer left along Back Lane - ignoring the no through road sign - and continue along the lane. At the junction, keep to the left, and then at the end of the lane, head to the right, along the path marked “Private Road”. As this is a public footpath, you are allowed to walk on it. Follow this path, and then at the junctions, keep to the right, to walk past two farm buildings on the right. This is now part of the Pennine Way. The path heads alongside some walled fields on the left, before clearly turning to the left to eventually find the remote abandoned stone farmhouse of Top Withins. Once you’ve investigated, retrace your steps until you see a clear path branching out to the right. Take this path and when it joins another, turn left. Follow this to walk alongside South Dean Beck. Ignore the next two paths branching off, and stick to the main path - although the landscape is wild, stick to this clear path. After a while, three more paths branch off, and you should ignore those too. Just after the edge of a walled field, at the junction of paths, head to the right, which is the easiest way to Bronte Bridge. Cross over the bridge, and look for the Bronte Waterfalls. Don’t turn down the path on the right, but continue on what is now part of the Bronte Way. Follow this very clear path, with green fields on the left and moorland on the right. Keep on this path until it reaches a crossroads. Here, head straight across, and down along Cemetery Road - keeping safe as it is a narrow road. Follow this all the way back to the laybe car park.
Walk: Cullingworth Circular
A lovely walk around the Cullingworth landscape, with some impressive rises and falls to make the heart pump and seeing a reservoir and an old railway viaduct on the way. Located halfway between Bradford and Haworth. The Route Start Point: Hallas Lane, off Cullingworth Rd, Cullingworth, Bradford BD13 5BG Finish Point: Hallas Lane, off Cullingworth Rd, Cullingworth, Bradford BD13 5BG Distance: 6 Miles GPX Route Map walkshirecullingworthcircular-1Download Walk Description From your parking spot at the top of Hallas Lane, walk down this unmade road away from Cullingworth Road, so the houses are on your left. As Greenside Lane branches off to the left, continue down Hallas Lane, which is veering off the right. Carry on past the farm cottages on the left and into the wooded area to cross over Hallas Beck and then turn left. Continue in Little Ridge Wood keeping the beck on your left and following the clear main path into Goitstock Wood. The path turns sharp right and then sharp left, to roughly follow the edge of the wood. Follow this around to the right to eventually come out on Harden Lane. Turn left and walk inside the garden centre car park for a short while, until you see a footpath on the other side of the road, opposite the car entrance to the car park. Cross over the road, and take the footpath over the stile. Cross over Wilsden Beck into the wood, and turn right to take the clear path through the wood. As you emerge from the wood, signs point to the left for the Millennium Way. Ignore these and carry on straight along the boundary of the fields to reach a track. Turn left and follow the access road for the farm, turning left on the bridleway as you enter a wood, and emerge onto Smithy Lane. Turn left and follow the road down to Main Street. Turn left again and then right down Chapel Row. Follow this to turn right onto Tan House Lane, and follow this until you run out of road. Continue on the footpath, called Nab Lane and it eventually brings you out onto Bents Lane. Turn right onto Bents Lane and then follow it around until there’s a hidden footpath on the left immediately after the last house. Take this, squeezing through the wall, and follow the boundary down to the wood. Turn left at the wood and follow the boundary until the path enters the wood, and then exits it straight onto the B6144 Lane Side. Be careful here as the footpath drops straight onto the road - there is no pavement. Looking to your right across the road, you will see the footpath sign ahead, and carefully cross to drop down onto this footpath. Follow roughly the line of Hewenden Beck to eventually walk between two walls underneath the Hewenden Viaduct. On the other side, the path clearly veers to the left, then following the boundary on your left, veers to the right of a house to pick up an access road. Turn left then look out for a public footpath sign on the right. Tale this path over the reservoir’s embankment and then turn right along another access road. When this road runs out, continue on the path. Take the next public footpath on the right, and after going between the trees, follow the boundary of the fields with the reservoir on your right. Eventually the path leads to an access road for a farm - pass through the farm to reach Cullingworth Road. Turn left to return to where you parked.

Walk: Oxenhope - Leeming Reservoir - Thornton Moor Reservoir
A stroll through the quaint village of Oxenhope in the foot of the South Pennines with wonderful views of the Worth Valley from the reservoirs on it's outskirts. The Route what3words for start point: ///narrowest.ledge.televise Start Point: Oxenhope Finish Point: Oxenhope Distance: 5 Miles GPX Route Map oxenhopeDownload Walk Description Starting Point: Next to Oxenhope Station on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway Step off the train at Oxenhope station, and you're not just arriving in a village; you're stepping into a living movie set and a gateway to Yorkshire's industrial past. As part of the celebrated Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, one of the finest examples of preserved steam railways in the country, Oxenhope station has graced the silver screen in films like "The Railway Children." For fans of both history and cinema, arriving by this mode of transport isn't just convenient—it's like riding through time itself. The old mill workers' cottages line the streets. Many of these historical buildings have been repurposed into homes, but they've lost none of their vintage allure. From the train station the two-mile uphill journey is not for the faint of heart. This stretch is also the battleground for the village's annual straw race, where competitors sprint up this steep hill while carrying a bale of straw on their backs. While you won't be carrying straw, the incline provides its own challenges, offering a workout that'll make the ascent all the more rewarding. Upon cresting the hill, you'll find yourself by Leeming Reservoir. Pause here and to soak in the view - a panorama of the valley that stretches far and wide. Having feasted your eyes and filled your lungs with fresh air, it's time to begin the descent back to Oxenhope. Cap off the adventure with a visit to one of the local pubs for a hearty ale, sumptuous pie, or some classic Yorkshire fare.
