Wakefield Way

W Yorkshire

A 75 mile circular walking route around the Wakefield Metropolitan District, visiting Wintersett Reservoir, Newmillerdam, Woolley, Bretton Hall, Bank Wood, Horbury Bridge, River Calder, Gawthorpe, Bottom Boat, Stanley Ferry, Aire & Calder Navigation Canal, Pontefract Park and East Hardwick.
UPDATE MARCH 2021 - The route for this LDP passes through the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, using permissive footpaths. We have been advised that the Yorkshire Sculpture Park have recently started charging a fee of £6 to use these permissive footpaths.
Alternative arrangements may want to be made to avoid these charges. The Ramblers Yorkshire website below suggests an alternative option passing through the village of West Bretton.
It is not proposed to amend our GPX files at the present time.
