アラートンバイウォーターのおすすめランニングルート

Very muddy on sections and lots of bird twitchers out, oblivious that other people are using the trails as well 🥴

Nice track along the river. Watch out for the Deer

Lovely staff in the cafe, nice hot cuppa with a view

St Aiden's RSPB Reserve is a significant nature reserve located near Castleford in West Yorkshire. It covers over 600 acres and is part of the Aire Valley. It was developed on former coal mining land, transforming it into a thriving habitat for wildlife

The RSPB site is the main draw but a bonus is the awesome relic of this former opencast coal mine which is the behemoth Walking Dragline Excavator parked by the side of the RSPB cafe. The stretch of walk on the west from the Lemonroyd Marina is a bit dull being enclosed by a wire fence but once the waterways of the bird sanctuary open up, the walk becomes a delight. Easy walking, all on the flat and about 5 miles in length.

The Greenhouse Cafe on the Methley side of St Aidens is an excellent stopping place for Drink or something to eat well worth a try, their smoked salmon with cream cheese bagel sandwich are awsome

Nice pork pie and a loo stop

This is the old Dragline at St Aidens RSPB ,a loverly ride and a great reserve for wildlife.
