Crossgates–Wetherby Disused Railway Line

Highlight • Trail

The nondescript bridge from above on the road looks like any normal bridge but you don't realise how deep the cutting is until you see it. The line closed for good in October 1964.

Gill Beck Crossing

Highlight • River

This is a fun river crossing over the Gilil Beck. When the river is low, you can ride straight through, or use the elevated walkway if the water is high.

Stone Bridge Ford

Highlight • River

Looked very slimy and slippery so we chickened out and took the foot bridge. Take care if you give it a go!
