Take a break in the heart of Leeds with this jaunt through Meanwood Grove between Weetwood and Meanwood. This walk goes along a part of The Dales Way. The Route What3words for Start Point: ///rang.wheels.enhancement Start Point: Bus stops on either Green Road or Green View, Meanwood, Leeds LS6 4JZ Finish Point: Bus stops on either Green Road or Green View, Meanwood, Leeds LS6 4JZ Distance: 4 Miles GPX Route Map walkshiremeanwoodDownload Walk Description From either the bus stop on Green Road or Green View, walk away from the shops and towards Church Lane. Turn left onto Church Lane, then left onto Mill Pond Lane, and immediately right onto Mill Pond Close. When the road ends, carry on walking between the two stone buildings, past the pond on the right and then turn right at the cluster of trees. Follow this straight path along the back of the allotments, and then before the access path reaches the next road, turn right to follow the Meanwood Valley Trail. Cross over Meanwood Beck via the footbridge and carry straight on. At the crossroads of paths, continue straight on, and follow the beck until you meet an access road. Turn left and cross the beck, walking along the very narrow Weetwood Mill Lane. Turn right onto Weetwood Lane and then turn right again into the entrance for The Hollies. Turn left to follow the public footpath along the access road, and continue as it enters the wood. Keep following this main, clear path through the wood, not branching off left or right, but following it as it steadily turns to the left, and eventually you reach A6120 Ring Road Adel. Turn right here, and walk along the side of the Ring Road. Just past a bus stop, turn right down Parkside Road. Continue along Parkside Road, and turn right through the metal stile on the public footpath. Follow the clear path alongside Meanwood Beck and into Meanwood Grove wood, to eventually walk alongside a row of old terrace houses nestled in the wood. Follow the access road down to Green Lane next to the school, and then turn right down to the public footpath as the road turns to the left. Turn right, then left over the bridge and now you retrace your steps back to the bus stops on Green Road / Green View.
Walk: Leeds Dock to Knostrop Lock
A riverside walk from the heart of Leeds Dock to Knostrop Lock. The Route what3words for start point: ///hurray.social.museum Start Point: Leeds Dock Finish Point: Leeds Dock Distance: 4 Miles GPX Route Map leedstoknostropDownload Walk Description Starting the walk from Leeds Dock, situated on the Aire & Calder Navigation, the walk is easy to navigate by following the riverside path to Knostrop Lock and Thwaites Mill. This route makes up part of the Trans Pennine Trail. As you leave the city centre from Leeds Dock look out for the street art that has been installed on the riverside. You will pass under the new rust coloured steel pedestrian bridge, which opened in 2019, linking the CITU development to the heart of the city. Moving further out you will walk around the edge of the Knostrop Quay housing development. After passing the estate you will need to cross the pedestrian bridge to follow the riverside path on the far side, where the route becomes more of a green corridor. Following the path, you will cross the river again on a footbridge bridge and arrive at Knostrop Lock. Continue downstream, passing the small stone circle, until you reach Thwaite Watermill. Once you reach the mill you can follow the road round and pick the path back up at Knostrop Lock. You will need to cross the lock before retracing your steps back to Leeds Dock.
Walk: Armley to Kirkstall Bridge
A walk in Leeds out and back walk from Armley to Kirkstall bridge along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal Towpath. The Route what3words reference: ///pardon.path.waddled Start Point: Viaduct Road, Armley Finish Point: Kirkstall Bridge, Kirkstall Distance: 3.3 Miles GPX Route Map armleytokirkstallDownload Walk Description This walk is an out and back walk from Viaduct Road in Armley up to Kirkstall Bridge following the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. The first half of the walk is on smooth concrete and the second half gives you the option of a rough towpath or the cycle route travelling along side. As you get onto the canal, turn right away from Leeds city centre and keep the canal to your left. The path is wide and smooth with some short sections of cobbles under the bridges. You will pass by the historic Armley Mills as the towpath winds through the Aire Valley. A short distance into the walk you will approach the hills that traverse the entrances to Aire Valley Marina which allows boats to get on the canal. Just after Aire Valley Marina you will come to a bridge. If you take the right-hand path, just before the bridge, you can follow the direction of the canal into Kirkstall on a wide flat path that forms part of the cycle path. Alternatively, you can use the cobblestone path up and over the bridge to explore Armley Park and the wooded canal path. Once you have passed the Marina, you will reach a bridge where the cycle path re-joins the towpath. There are a number of cobbles on the path under the bridge. When you reach Kirkstall Bridge Car Park where you can either leave the canal, continue to explore the towpath as it travels past Bramley Fall Woods or retrace your steps. At Kirkstall Bridge you are just a few minutes’ walk from the Kirkstall Bridge Inn, a perfect place to stop for refreshment and enjoy the waterside garden!
Walk: Pioneering women and haunted pubs in hidden Newlay
A short circuit near Kirstall Forge and Kirkstall Abbey. The Route Start Point: Kirkstall Forge Finish Point: Kirkstall Forge Distance: 1.86 miles GPX Route Map dnaire-pioneering-women-in-hidden-newlayDownload Walk Description what3words for start point: ///pulled.really.sock Start at Kirkstall Forge train station (LS5 3NF). The site was once Kirkstall Forge. Metal has been smelted on this site since 1200 by the monks from Kirkstall Abbey. One owner, Betty Beecroft, transformed a largely derelict forge in 1778 in just four years into a thriving business that laid the foundation for production at the site until 2002. Exit through the rear of the station along the path that leads into woodland. Turn left at the T junction and head towards the canal. At the canal turn right and follow the signpost marked Horsforth. The Abbey Inn is said to be haunted. Like many pubs in the area, it was used as a mortuary from the 1600's until the 1950's. From the Abbey Inn walk down the road over the railway bridge and down towards Newlay Bridge. Walk across the bridge and when you come to Rein Road turn right and walk ahead until you see the river on your right. Follow the track along the riverbank. When the track comes out on Leeds and Bradford Road turn right and head down the hill back to Kirkstall Forge.
