A seven mile afternoon walk from Victoria Park in Calverley to Apperley Bridge and back. This undulating route features woodland, bluebells (hopefully), fields, leafy lanes and old tracks along with some urban walking between the green areas. It could be muddy in places.
Please have your lunch before the walk. If you are interested in going for a pub meal after the walk see further information below.
Meet by the war memorial at the main entrance to Victoria Park at 1.45pm, to start the walk at 2pm.
Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times please.
Arriving By Bus - The meeting point is on the 60 Airedale route.
Arriving By Car - Parking on the main road near the war memorial is not recommended as it’s a busy road and cars are often damaged by passing traffic. Street parking is usually available on Victoria Street at the back of the park and the surrounding area. From there it’s a ten minute walk to the meeting point. Please park responsibly.
There are no toilets at the meeting point.
Meal after the walk - If there is sufficient interest, a table will be booked at The Thornhill pub (subject to availability) for 6pm. If you would like to book a place please contact the walk leader in advance. This page will be updated when all the places are taken.
