リンドリーウッド貯水池でののおすすめライド

A quiet old narrow road with charm.

Lindley Wood is a compensation reservoir, which means it is not linked to the supply of water to homes but is there to take excess water from Fewston and Swinsty reservoirs, which are nearby. This is why there is not much water in there.

Enjoy beautiful cycling on a smooth, well-paved road that winds through the peaceful Stainburn Moor.

In 1748 Baroness Clifford married William Cavendish and Bolton Abbey Estate thereafter belonged to the Dukes of Devonshire, until a trust was set up by the 11th Duke of Devonshire turning it over to the Chatsworth Settlement Trustees to steward.

What a great sign!

This reservoir is one of the oldest in the Washbourn Valley; it was built between 1869 and 1876. The other three reservoirs here are Thruscross, Swinsty and Fewston. Walking around the reservoir is a truly aesthetic, soul-beautifying experience. The green wooded banks, woodland and reservoir paths and open countryside... what else would anyone want in life?... oh, sunsets here are unbelievable.

Beautiful spot on the River Wharfe. Plenty of places for refreshments and rest.

The Old Ilkley Bridge is a packhorse bridge over the River Wharfe. It was built in 1675 to replace the ford which took the Roman road across the water. It is especially beautiful on a sunny day with the light reflecting off the water onto the bridge. On the southern side of the bridge you will find the start of the Dales Way. An 80mile hike all the way to Lake Windemere in Cumbria.
