ハイホイランド周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

I expect this was for charity but there a lots of them loose from Jurassic Park lol

Careful crossing the road at the end fast and furious

This is vast and looks great as you get over the little bridge

Rock falls and land slides have affected a lot of the trail. The investment was a long time ago but it’s still beautiful. Personally, Would love to see it fully restored and full of boats.

Cold Hiendley Reservoir was constructed at the beginning of the 20th century to supply water to the growing city of Wakefield. The dam had to be strengthened in 1990. This is a popular fishing reservoir with large carp. There is a nice trail around the edge and the Trans Pennine Trail follows the Barnsley Canal path past the dam.

Newmiller Dam is the lake created by the dam for the new mill :-) The village is called Newmillerdam as in New Mill on the Dam. The dam was built to provide a lake and therefore power to the mills owned by the Pashley family just south of Wakefield. The lake and surrounding area is now a nature reserve owned and managed by Wakefield Council. The lake has a well surfaced path all around it, suitable mostly for pushchairs and wheelchairs as well as kids on bikes. It's a popular place and fun for a short walk.

Looked lovely in the sunshine

Haha the first time my friend and i cycled on here we couldn't get over how beautiful it was. I sorted a circular route back to Stanley Ferry that would take us to the end of the canal. However I missed the turn off that took us to the other side of the canal oops. We came across the railway line and i then realised we were on the wrong side of it. I can't say what we did next otherwise i might get into trouble lol. This picture is the crossover hehe
