1. Judy Woods
On the border between North Kirklees, Calderdale and Bradford, and measuring 40 hectacres, Judy Woods has ample space for everyone. When it's a bit warmer, it's also the perfect spot for a summery picnic. | Jim Fatton Photo: Jim Fitton
2. The Brontë Connection
This 4.5 mile walk connects three important sites associated with Emily Bronte’s novel, “Wuthering Heights”. The route follows the Penine Way before going over Haworth Moor to Top Withins Farm and then on to Wuthering Heights on Stanbury Moor.
