There's no better time to explore the great outdoors on your doorstep than now whilst it's not too hot but the skies are blue and the sun is out - and of course while there's some snow dotted around too. Here, we've rounded up some of the prettiest spots for a walk in Leeds. Remember due to coronavirus restrictions you can only socialise outdoors as a group of six or a mixture of two households.
7. Roundhay Park
Covering 700 acres of parkland, lakes and woodland, walkers have plenty of picturesque spaces to wander around at this popular outdoor spot, incorporating both tarmac paths and woodland routes. There's also often an ice cream van along the way!
