We are the Leeds Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

From Hebden Bridge Railway Station we walk through the park , over the canal and up through the pedestrianised town centre. Out of town heading north on footpaths and bridleways by the river passing Midgehole (possible coffee stop) up to New Bridge. We then follow the riverside walk through Hebden Dale to Gibson Mill and a view point Hardcastle Crag. We will stop for a picnic lunch at the Gibson Mill picnic area. There is a cafe and toilets.
Return starts with a fairly steep climb up through Hebden Wood joining the Calderdale Way through Eaves Wood. We turn through the picturesque village of Heptonstall returning downhill all the way to the Old Bridge in the centre of Hebden Bridge.
