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

From the car park we make our way alongside the reservoir before turning off into the forest to make our way to Anchor farm. We then re-enter the forest until we reach the access gate onto Blubberhouse Moor and then follow the Roman Road track until we reach Gawk Hill Gate. From this point we head along the ridge footpath to Ellacarr Pike and then down to the Grange and follow the track through the forest back to the car park. A lunch stop will be made at a suitable spot along route.
The walk is mainly along good tracks through the forest and a good section along the Roman road until we reach Gawk Hill Gate. The path then becomes quite narrow, rocky and boggy in places so walking poles may be useful. Refreshments will be at a local farmshop/cafe after the walk.
Swinsty Moor Plantation car park(west side of reservoir) Fee payable.
