Exploring on your doorstep
Leeds has so many incredible spots to appreciate! On this walk we have the Chevin Forest Park with its unreal views of the ice age forged valley, Otley, the Almscliffe Crag, Washburn Valley and the telecoms tower that sits in the Norwood Edge Forest plantation.
We head through Horsforth and Meanwood, where we walk past the old fairground site and the uniquely named natural spring, the Slabbering baby. We pass the old children’s home at Eastmoor before reaching the Eccup reservoir and the red kite release zones.
