February 18, 2021 by Gemma 0 comments

The Leeds Liverpool canal that runs through Skipton is a great place to walk. Last year the paths were upgraded by Canals & River Trust so the towpath is even more perfect now. Whether its for walks, runs, a bike ride the towpath is the most accessible walk you will find. The thing we like […]

A child free night away in Keswick, Lake District

February 13, 2021 by Gemma 0 comments

Between Christmas and New Year we were lucky enough to book an impromptu rare child free night away to the Lakes. At the time both areas were under Tier 2 covid restrictions which meant we could stay overnight. At the time it was totally amazing to get away under the circumstances but writing this currently […]

February 13, 2021 by Gemma 0 comments

With the road map for the way of Lockdown 3 planned to be announced soon it has got me thinking about the places I want to visit this year. With 2021 still looking so uncertain I’m cautious to dream too much but my mind has started wandering. Where is the first place I would like […]

Bluebells in Middleton Woods, Ilkley

February 8, 2021 by Gemma 1 comment

Location: Parking in lay-by, LS29 0BZ Distance: 1km Middleton Woods in Ilkley is THE best place to see the bluebells in Spring. The wood is totally covered, they are simply beautiful. I haven’t seen anywhere that matches this amount. Parking in the lay-by on Denton Road, opposite the footbridge over the river, the entrance to […]

Sharphaw, Skipton

February 7, 2021 by Gemma 0 comments

Location: Parking off road on the sharp bend of Bog Lane Distance: 4.5km Sharphaw is the peak that offers great views over Skipton whilst bagging yourself a trig point! The walk is usually boggy on this section of the moor so with little ones that can significantly slow you down. From the lay-by on Bog […]

Thruscross Reservoir

January 25, 2021 by Gemma 2 comments

Location: HG3 4BB Distance: 9.5km Thruscross Reservoir is one of the more challenging reservoir walks and is definitely not pram friendly! As a lover of reservoirs the spillway here is stunning and worth the trip just to see this especially when it’s spilling! The route itself around the reservoir has it all; woodland, paths along […]

Ilkley Tarn

January 16, 2021 by Gemma 0 comments

Location: Car park, LS29 9JS Distance: 1.5km Ilkley Tarn is a fab little pram friendly walk which gives you a taster of what the rest of the moors has to offer. There are actually two tarns, this larger one being the Lower one. Parking at the top of Wells Road the path takes you up […]
