SUMMARY:Saturday Walk: Easier category:- Kirkstall Forge Railway Station into Leeds c 6.5 to 7.5 miles
DESCRIPTION:The walk will start from the free parking at the Kirkstall Forge Railway Station at 9:30 am.   \n\n\n\nThe walk is very flat and is on a good path at the side of the Leeds and Liverpool canal. The main hazard on this walk are all the cyclists who also have a right of way on this route. The walkers have priority but in practice it tends not to work like that! There certainly won’t be the usual livestock to worry about on this walk. \n\n\n\nWe’ll walk into Leeds from Kirkstall Forge station. I’m going to do a slight diversion off Whitehall Road to show you the Leeds equivalent of the High Line in New York – where they created a garden on a disused railway viaduct.  \n\n\n\nThen we’ll head to the Adelphi Pub for an early lunch/brunch. After that we’ll walk on to the Armouries area and maybe pick up a cuppa there before heading back to the Leeds Railway station for the train back to Kirkstall. The total distance we will walk is uncertain. The distance from the Kirkstall station to the Armouries and then back to Leeds station is 6.4 miles\, so it depends on how much wandering around that we do. \n\n\n\nA single ticket on the train is £2.00\, without a railcard or £1.30 with. You could buy a single from a machine at the station or buy it on your app once we know which train we’ll be getting back. Trains are at 12 and 42 minutes past the hour. The journey back takes 6 minutes.

SUMMARY:Saturday Walk c.6.6 miles Easy Category:- Fewston and Swinsty Reservoirs
DESCRIPTION:The walk around the 2 reservoirs is described by the Yorkshire Post as being 7 miles long but I’ve plotted it on my OSMaps App and it reckons 6.6 miles – so that’s the general distance. There is very little climbing (most of it up the steps when you leave the Swinsty reservoir).  The OS Map App calculates that there’s 430ft in total. I think this walk will take around 2.5 hours. \n\n\n\nThe walk will start from the car park at Blubberhouses near the western end of Fewston reservoir (by the A59) at 9:30am. Note that we have to pay to park there now. \n\n\n\nhttps://www.yorkshirewater.com/things-to-do/reservoirs/fewston-reservoir/      so £3 for 6 hours. You need a card or the RingGo app they mention in this link. \n\n\n\nThere’s not much to describe about this walk as we just follow the paths around the 2 reservoirs. We are going in an anti-clockwise direction. There are toilets less than half-way around at the Swinsty Moor car park. We might encounter some muddy stretches but there are no stiles and no livestock either. \n\n\n\nWe are going to the Fewston Café for refreshments afterwards. It’s not run by the Fewston Farm (which runs the Farm shop) and the farm website is out of date with regard to the café. It’s a 3-minute drive eastwards on the A59. It’s not a great menu from what I can see but it’s all there is in the area. The lady who runs it (Wendy) is on holiday at the moment. She’s back on Wednesday so I’ll make contact then to book and see if she needs a pre-order. I’m hoping you might be able to open this Facebook link. \n\n\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/17kWndhvdr/?mibextid=wwXIfr \n\n\n\nWalk link    https://explore.osmaps.com/route/20413202/fewston–swinsty-reservoirs-circular?lat=53.98345&lon=-1.73653&zoom=13.148&style=Leisure&type=2d

SUMMARY:Midweek walk: approx 5 miles from Apperley Bridge through Cragg Wood to Rodley\, returning along the Leeds-Liverpool Canal (390ft ascent and 387ft descent)
DESCRIPTION:Beginning at Apperley Bridge\, the walk initially takes us up Harrogate Road to reach Woodlands Drive where we can enjoy some surprisingly rural countryside before entering Cragg Wood and making our way down a lane and across fields to the canal at Rodley. Here we will aim to stop for a coffee at Brodie and Flynn before returning on a charming section of  the Leeds – Liverpool canal towpath. Please note the initial section has some gentle uphill sections\, and the walk should take around 2 hours 20. As well as some lovely scenery\, there are some stunning properties to admire in a lesser known part of Rawdon. Whilst much of this walk is on quiet roads and good footpaths\, there are two sections which could be very muddy\, so appropriate footwear and poles are advised. Please be aware that Brodie and Flynn do not take bookings so numbers on this walk are strictly limited to 12.

SUMMARY:5 mile walk along the River Wharfe from Otley via Knotford Nook Gravel Workings
DESCRIPTION:Starting from the car park opposite Buon Apps\, our walk takes us initially on a familiar route on good paths over the bridge and through Wharfe Meadows Park before crossing the river to the Gallows Hill Nature Reserve. Rather than doing a circuit of the nature reserve we continue on into the fields beyond\,  eventually making our way back up to the main road for a short distance before a quiet side road takes us on a circuit of Knotford Nook. From here we will then cross the Pool Road and proceed through fields\, climbing gently almost to the disused railway line before making our way through the outskirts of Otley and into the town. The walk should take around 2 hours and is a pleasant circuit through some lesser known areas of Otley on a mixture of good paths and across fields which could be very muddy. There are stiles  and the fields could contain livestock. At this time of year it could also be icy\, so please bear that in mind and come suitably equipped. Sadly the Little Corner of the World is no longer an option for refreshments at the end of our walk so we may give Parisian Chic in Bay Horse Court a try.

SUMMARY:Saturday Walk 3rd January - medium to hard category - c 7.3 miles\, circular walk from the Mistal cafe on the Chevin
DESCRIPTION:The walk will start from the Mistal café car park on the left-hand side as you descend the Chevin on East Chevin Road at 9:00am.  NOTE: we have been allocated just 3 parking spaces as they have an event on this date. \n\n\n\nWe’ll turn left out of the Mistal car park and walk down and through the public car park on the other side of the road to pick up the little path by the side of the road. We’ll come out on the East Chevin Road and carefully cross it to head up the path at the side of the house. This takes us up to Surprise View. We’ll continue past there and into the woods where eventually we emerge into a field where we can see the York Gate Road. We cross York Gate and pick up another path which heads down towards an old quarry\, we’ll turn left along another good path and come out past Upcroft Farm. We’ll head down Carlton Lane a little way and then pick up another path which will bring us out in West Carlton. We cross Carlton Lane again and take Mall Lane up towards the Chevin Lodge Hotel. We’ll wander through their grounds (York Gate Plantation) and come out on York Gate again. We cut across a couple of fields and descend to East Chevin Road\, which we’ll cross and walk down along the pavement until we pick up a path into the Chevin Forest park. We’ll do a decent loop in here before emerging back at The Mistal in time for lunch.

SUMMARY:Midweek walk: 5 miles Sicklinghall to Spofforth circular
DESCRIPTION:Described as a classic countryside ramble\, our walk takes us from the delightful village of Sicklinghall through Stockeld Park to reach the disused railway line between Wetherby and Spofforth. From here we return on an ancient footpath through open countryside to Sicklinghall. This is a mostly level walk on made footpaths\, however there are undulations\, and there is one field which can be very muddy\, so walking boots and pole are definitely advised. I have booked a table at the Scotts Arms for lunch at 12.15. Depending on timing we may stop for coffee in Spofforth\, but can decide that on the day.

SUMMARY:Saturday Walk 29th November - NEW! Easy Walk in Meanwood Valley c.6.5 miles
DESCRIPTION:The next walk is a new one and is a nice relatively easy walk starting from the car park in Meanwood next to the Three Cottages café. This is currently a free car park. It’s not very big so we need to minimise the number of cars we take. The walk has around 650ft of climbing and descending. I estimate that the walk will take a maximum of 3 hours. We will have lunch at the Three Cottages café afterwards. Please have a look at the lunch menu (using the link below) and let me have your food selection. \n\n\n\n\nLunch Menu\n\n\n\n\nThe walk will start from the Three Cottages car park off Green Road in Meanwood LS6 4LE at 9:00.  This is a free car park. \n\n\n\nThere are toilets in the café\, but it only opens at 9am\, which is when we are starting the walk. \n\n\n\nThis is a lovely\, varied walk in woodland and by streams. This walk was devised by Sue Wittrick as she knows this area much better than I do. I find the multitude of paths very confusing. Sue will be the wing woman for this walk\, and I’ll be trying to learn it better for myself! I wanted to have an easy walk in this area which made use of the excellent Three Cottages café and Sue stepped up for the challenge so my grateful thanks to Sue! \n\n\n\nWe will walk from the car park up tarmac paths to start with. The Meanwood Valley area is criss-crossed with paths and streams and is a delight. We’ll head up towards the Ring Road and will go through the tunnel under it. We’ll then head into Adel Woods and then come back down to the Ring Road\, which we will cross very carefully. We walk through Meanwood Park and back into the Meanwood Valley for lunch at the café after changing out of our muddy boots. \n\n\n\nWe will encounter some muddy stretches on this walk\, especially if we have any more rain between now and then. There aren’t really any areas where we’re likely to encounter livestock and stiles are few and far between on this walk. \n\n\n\nNote that poles are now compulsory on the walks. Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear\, which take account of the weather forecast\, and bring a drink. I do my best to assess the weather and the likely walking conditions but would ask everyone to decide whether a particular walk is right for them on that day. Please note that everyone taking part in the walk does so at their own risk. \n\n\n\nHere’s a link\, which all of you can open and for all those of you who have the OS Map App\, it will appear in the tab labelled “Bookmarked” when you download it.  \n\n\n\nhttps://explore.osmaps.com/route/28543684/meanwood-valley-and-adel-woods

SUMMARY:Approx 4 miles along the riverbank from Low Mill to Addingham and an exploration of the village
DESCRIPTION:Starting from the old Ilkley Road our route takes us along part of the Dalesway through the delightful hamlet of Low Mill in Addingham to St Peter’s Church\, from where we head up into the village itself and explore some of the back lanes and footpaths\, passing some delightful old cottages and converted mills. Eventually our route takes us back to the river where we will stop for refreshment at Hamilton’s before returning along the riverbank and retracing our steps through Low Mill to the cars. The walk is mostly on good paths and lanes\, with a few short unavoidable sections along the main road. There are no hills and the majority of the walk is flat\, but some paths undulate\, especially on the return riverside section\, and there are three sets of steps and one field with sheep. Depending on the rainfall in the next 10 days some paths could be muddy\, so walking boots and poles will be needed.

SUMMARY:4 mile circular walk from the outskirts of Guiseley to Menston.
DESCRIPTION:Our walk takes us from Guiseley Drive (first left on the A65 after the White Cross roundabout if coming from Guiseley) behind the new High Royds estate before turning up towards High Royds Hall and crossing fields to bring us into the centre of Menston. From here we walk down towards the station on quiet roads then cross the A65 to swing back round over the railway and through fields before emerging on Netherfield Road. A combination of roads and paths brings us back to the White Cross roundabout where Twenty8Coffee offers refreshments. This is a pleasant ramble on footpaths\, across fields and some road walking with great views on a clear day. There is 317 ft of ascent and descent\, there are some stiles and as we cross farm land there is always the possibility of encountering livestock as well as probably quite a lot of mud and fields with long grass which can be very wet in the morning or after rain\, therefore please ensure you have boots and poles. Twenty8Coffee are reluctant to take bookings so we may have to take a chance there.

SUMMARY:Saturday Walk 25th October - easier category - 7 miles from Horsforth
DESCRIPTION:The next walk is a nice relatively easy walk starting from the free Fink Hill car park in Horsforth. There is a short hill fairly near the start of the walk (Hunger Hills area) and a gradual climb back up to Horsforth from the River Aire during the final third of the walk. In total there is over 900 feet of ascent\, but it doesn’t make this a hard walk. I estimate that it will take us a maximum of 3 hours. We will have lunch at the Greenhouse on Horsforth Town Street at 12:15. This is an excellent vegan café which we’ve used before. They’ve introduced a restriction on numbers for the first time – 10 max\, so I could take 12 on the walk but only 10 for the lunch. I’m sorry about this\, but they say they get too busy on a Saturday lunchtime to accommodate and more. Note that there is no cow’s milk served in hot drinks. They like the idea of pre-orders for the food\, so please have a look at the menu and let me know what you would like to eat. I love the food here and I’m not a vegan. We’ll change out of our boots at the cars and then walk up Town Street. \n\n\n\nhttps://www.thegreenhousehorsforth.co.uk/menu \n\n\n\nThe walk will start from the Fink Hill car park in Horsforth at 9:15am.  This was a free car park next to Hall Park but we may well have to pay\, so bring a card/cash etc.  See attached map. \n\n\n\nThere are no toilets at the start of this walk. \n\n\n\nA lovely\, varied walk around parts of Horsforth that takes in Hunger Hills\, the canal at Rodley and Cragg Hill. \n\n\n\nWe will walk from the car park up to Hunger Hills\, where there are great views\, then drop down to the canal at Rodley. From there we walk by the canal to Newlay where we cross the river and walk alongside it for a while. We come up and away from the river to cross the A65\, up onto Outwood Lane and back via Cragg Hill and Featherbank. \n\n\n\nMuch of this walk is on decent paths but there are a couple of stretches where we walk through woods and by the edge of a field. \n\n\n\nWe may encounter some muddy stretches on this walk\, especially if we have any rain between now and then. There aren’t really any areas where we’re likely to encounter livestock and stiles are few and far between on this walk. \n\n\n\nPlease wear appropriate clothing and footwear\, which take account of the weather forecast\, and bring a drink. I do my best to assess the weather and the likely walking conditions but would ask everyone to decide whether a particular walk is right for them on that day. Please note that everyone taking part in the walk does so at their own risk. \n\n\n\nHere’s the link for those of you who have the OS Map App. It should appear in the tab labelled “Bookmarked” when you download it.  \n\n\n\nhttps://explore.osmaps.com/route/6976961/jennys-horsforth-walk?lat=53.833870&lon=-1.663416&zoom=12.9097&style=Standard&type=2d

SUMMARY:4.5 mile walk along the River Aire and Leeds-Liverpool Canal from Apperley Bridge.
DESCRIPTION:Beginning at Apperley Bridge\, the walk teeters along the edges of the River Aire to reach the new housing estate at Horsforth Vale before returning on a charming section of towpath along the Leeds – Liverpool canal. The walk is relatively flat and takes in some beautiful\, tranquil countryside. The riverside path is quite narrow in places so there could be some overgrown sections and depending on rainfall in the preceding days it could be muddy\, so appropriate footwear and poles are advised. We will aim to stop in the middle of the walk for coffee at Brodie and Flynn in Horsforth Vale\, however they do not take bookings so they may be full. They do have outdoor seating\, but we will have to see on the day.
