A step-free and well maintained circular walk, taking in gorgeous secret woodland and canal and riverside paths. So much to love!

Step 1: Welcome to Horsforth! Our walk begins at The Bridge (LS18 4HN). There's frequent bus service from Leeds City Centre and Horsforth Station.

Step 2: When you're ready, let's head out. Facing the front door of the pub, turn left to cross Hawksworth Road and continue down Butcher Hill.

Step 3: The pavement is a bit narrow here, but luckily we'll get off it really soon.

Step 4: Cross over Oil Mill Beck, also known as Horsforth Beck, down in the gulley below.

Step 5: Just a bit further on, there's a fingerpost and some steps. Ignore this and continue straight.

Step 6: Almost immediately after, at the next fingerpost, turn right.
