We are the Calderdale Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This is a truly beautiful walk through one of Yorkshire's hidden gems of a valley. Our walk will cross moors, farmland, woods and the meandering ancient footpaths and bridleways of Luddenden's past.
Despite being high summer, Calderdale's weather can be notoriously changeable so come prepared for the forecast conditions, particularly footwear as peat moors can be muddy at any time of year. There will be some steep ascents.
This is sensitive moorland for rare ground-nesting birds, so although dogs are welcome, they must be kept on a lead. There will be some stiles.
Bring a packed lunch to enjoy picnic-style.
Meet at the Ludden village free carpark. This is an honesty box system, so some change is advised. It is also small and very popular for churchgoers, so arrive early, carshare, or use public transport which is plentiful along the main Burnley Road or hourly using the Midgley service.
