A great place to go clear your head, take in some fresh air and just enjoy the scenery. There are lots of different trails to take. We had a walk to Overton and the national mining museum. Plenty of wildlife. Lots of different birds too.
Beautiful woodland gave us some shelter during the dog walk. Even found a rope swing. Great way to pass a few hours. Parking is on wherever you can find it!
Park on Coxley View and you will find the entrance. Great place for training our puppy off lead as it’s got plenty of paths to follow and well sign posted. Can get muddy and slippy when it’s been raining the night before.
A stunning wood situated above Wakefield and well hidden. It is part of an ancient forest and so has many mature trees and interesting flora and fauna to be found. It's on quite a steep bank so not really suitable for wheelchairs. We spent about 2 hours mooching round and found several species of fungi not found elsewhere. A stream runs along the bottom. Another well maintained area by Yorkshire Wildlife trust. Well worth a visit.
Absolutely gorgeous place to walk, I even saw a deer 🦌
