Walk 38 - Elslack Moor from Ickornshaw

Distance

25.7km

Ascent

690m

Descent

680m

May 17, 2024

This arduous walk is a prelude to the Millstone Grit landscapes of the South Pennines. It runs over pasture and moorland, crossing and re-crossing ridges that add greatly to the ascent but provide compensation in the form of extensive views. There is some fiddly route-finding along the way.

May 17, 2024

A pleasant walk following the Pennine Way over gently rolling pasture, returning on the towpath beside the

Leeds & Liverpool Canal as it winds lazily through an

area of drumlins. Entertainment is provided by canal boats negotiating the locks.

This walk offers an unequalled combination of beautiful countryside and industrial heritage. The varied route includes narrow lanes and open moorland, as well as

a beautiful wooded valley (Hebden Dale), a visit to the centre of Hebden Bridge and the towpath beside the Rochdale Canal.

Walk 43 - Cragg Vale and many reservoirs

Distance

24.6km

Ascent

380m

Descent

360m

February 25, 2024

Although this walk crosses bleak moorland, navigation

is fairly straightforward and the Pennine Way itself

follows good tracks beside a chain of moorland

reservoirs. Sections of the route use permissive paths

created by Yorkshire Water, including a path above the village of Cragg Vale.
