Great place to sit and see many species of water birds nice easy walk around the tarn many benches round to sit and watch the world go by
Very close by the Keighley area, there's a big stretch at front to park at, not sure how busy it may get. There's a few benches for people to sit and enjoy a picnic. And the views are very pretty however the actual walk around is very short, we walked around in less than 5 mins so just be aware it's not a big walk if that's what you expect. I think kids would enjoy it with the animals.
Redcar Tarn in Keighley is a great place for evening and morning walks, and a great place for kids to enjoy
Large pond with lots of ducks and geese. Pleasant walk around it on a tarmac path with a couple of picnic benches. Feels more remote than it actually is. Good place to go to chill out for a short while.
Nice walk around Keighley Tarn with the dogs
