Overview

From the car park, we will walk along the bank of the reservoir, then up the very attractive picturesque valley past waterfalls on to the moor. As we cross the moor we will have excellent views across the valleys to 2 more resevoirs. We will reach and cross a minor road taking us onto Warley moor. From here, we walk around Warley reservoir then across Warley Moor. From here, we head across to Leadbeater Dam and beyond to Halifax golf course, which we cross to emerge on  track back down to Ogden Reservoir.
