More details
Dogs: Dogs are allowed on the walk although there are several points where we have to cross the road so must be kept under close control
Accessibility: there are sections where you have to walk across a narrow plank bridge to avoid the overflow of canal water so not so suitable for buggies or wheelchairs.
Toilets: there are toilets at Mytholmroyd and the Hollingworth Lake visitors centre where the walk starts and at cafes/pubs in Todmorden and Hebden Bridge along the route
Refreshments: There will be refreshments available at the centre at the end of the walk
Car park: There is parking at Mytholmroyd Community Centre with a honesty box and suggested payment amount
Walk packs: which include your walk t-shirt and number will be sent out 2 weeks prior to the walk.
