Overview

Join us for easy walking through ancient woodlands and along parts of the Transpennine Trail, circumnavigating the M1 motorway. Passing through Chapeltown and stopping at The Barley Inn for a lunch break. In the afternoon the path takes us tantalisingly close to the M1 motorway, winding our way back to Tankersley.
