Several"No cycling "signs have been fitted at the ring road entrance in the past but they are always vandalised and removed by people who presumably think that cycling should be allowed. This causes conflict between cyclists and walkers which is unfortunate. Some sections of the path can get quite overgrown and narrow.

Rode through from the ring road, no signs posted from my direction, followed the route and at the gate on the Shadwell side said it said no cyclists, a very rude woman walking her dogs nearly knocked me over as she would not let me pass until the last second, they need signs on both sides, but there are plenty of other cycle tracks so I’m not the only one who’s gone through.

Barwick-in-Elmet unveils itself as a charming village. It stands as one of merely three locales in the region with a direct link to the storied Romano-British kingdom of Elmet from antiquity. In this village, an exploration awaits, highlighted by noteworthy attractions. Among them is the village's pride: the second-largest Maypole in the United Kingdom. Another gem, Hall Tower Hill, once an observatory during the Second World War, graces the landscape. Completing the village experience, one can find solace within the welcoming confines of any of its three public houses.

Fairburn Ings nature reserve is managed by the RSPB. It used to be a coal mine but has been transformed over the last 60 years to a haven for wildlife. It's an important breeding and nesting site for water birds. The star species that you may see are Bittern, Willow Tit, Kingfisher, Tree Sparrow and Spoonbill. The visitor centre has information, toilets and a cafe. It's open 10:00 - 17:00 in the summer and 10:00 - 16:00 in the winter.

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

Despite showing on the map as a bridleway and me cycling this before, there are now (as at 7/6/2022) No Cycling signs at the gates at each end of the bridleway. Shame as its a nice section.

Looked stunning today and very hot

Fairburn Ings is a former coal mining site that is now a nature reserve of grassland, deciduous woodland, wetlands and lagoons. Located between Leeds, Castleford and York, the area is managed by the RSPB. https://www.rspb.org.uk/reserves-and-events/reserves-a-z/fairburn-ings/

One of Barwick in Elmet's most distinctive landmarks, this 86-foot (26m) maypole is the second highest in the UK. Every three years, a raising ceremony takes place where tradition dictates that a local villager climbs the pole to spin 'the fox', which is actually a weather vane. The maypole marks the end of the first of the four traditional stages of the Leeds Country Way.

just enjoy the ride

also a nice place to get a tea or coffee

Great hard packed gravel path to avoid the roads.

Just a stone’s throw from the centre of Leeds, St Aidan’s is a stunning park to explore. Whether you’re on foot, on your bike or have your camera at the ready, take advantage of the amazing views and wonderful wildlife including bitterns, avocets, black terns, skylarks and meadow pipits. Very friendly staff who will tell you about the open cast coal mine that used to be there. There is a coffee machine with a limited choice of foods so not a café as such but indoor and outdoor seating. Fabulous place for picnics in the warmer weather. Great place for families and you can get there by bike, walking or car. If you have an RSPB card it is free to enter the reserve or £4 per car.

It is now preserved on the site of the former St Aidans surface (opencast) coal mine at Swillington, near Leeds, where it last worked. They organise regular Open Days for the public to attend and can also open at other times by appointment

Good starting point for a walk
