Summary Relentlessly up and down,
with little rest and lots of fun.
From the centre of Hebden Bridge,
pick up the canal towpath and
follow it upstream to Eastwood. Pick up the ‘no through road’ and climb all the way to Great Rock.
Bear left on tarmac, then left
again towards Cross Stone road
before turning right onto the next
bridleway. Follow this straight over the next t-junction, through a gate and
down to pick up the Calderdale Way.
Follow this bridleway along the
hill, bearing right to descend just
after the farm then up a short climb as
towards Todmorden. At the golf course, turn right and then left on the road, before picking up bridleway again at Bean Pole Head.
At Rodwell End, bear right and
then continue straight ahead onto
direct bridleway rather than turning right into the yard. Turn left along
the road, taking the Pennine
Bridleway as it climbs to the left
to the top of Jack Bridge. Climb
through Colden then descend on
the road to Slack. Take a right
between houses and zig-zag down
the valley before bearing left to
climb steeply again, turning right
into Heptonstall at the top.
Take a sharp left off the cobbles just beyond the pubs and descend the bridleway to the river. Pick up Crimsworth Dean track and climb, bearing right at the cowshed to cross
Lumb Falls and ascend the other
side to Keighley Road. Drop
briefl y into Peckett Well then take
the bridleway right; follow this,
with one right turn, all the way to
Hardcastle Crags and then to
Hebden Bridge via the road. |
