Overview

From our start point we will walk up a couple of streets before entering a ginnel which takes us up to Tong Park. From here, we cross a few fields before dropping down to cross Gill Beck. After which, we walk up through the wood to emerge in a field. Once again,we cross a numberof fields before reaching the village of Hawksworth. After crossing the road, we follow fields and tracks into Menston. Unfortunately, from here there's a bit of road walking before we can turn off onto the moor. Once on the moor, we follow the tracks to Bingley Road, then across Baildon Moor back to Baildon.
