Overview

A local ramble starting in Far Headingley and passing through the greener parts of Adel, Cookridge, Horsforth and then back to Headingley opposite Woodies (which strangely enough provides us with a post walk tipple).

Following footpaths through a mixture of urban and countryside landscapes. Gently undulating terrain with no prolonged steep hills.

Risk of a bit of mud through the woodland areas especially if we have rain.
