We are the Take a Hike Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Starting from Otley we will meander to the remaining part of the railway line that runs parallel with the Bradford Road. The route is broken as the bridges have been removed but still traceable until where it joined the Leeds to Ilkley line.
From the end of the line we join parts of the Ebor Way and go through Menston and then various bridleways to Guiseley Moor and then the West Chevin area.
From Surprise View we descend past the White House to Birdcage Walk and then across the Otley Bypass (built on the old railway line) to the site of the old Railway Station at the top of Station Road.
A few sections of road walking but should be ok for dogs.
Meet outside Blue Octopus on the corner of Station Road and Burras Lane. Bus 33/34 and X84 from Leeds. Parking at various places.
