The Welcome Way
The Welcome Way is a 36 mile circular way-marked footpath linking the Walking Welcome communities of Burley in Wharfedale, Baildon, Bingley and Otley. Devised by representatives from each group, a beautifully illustrated booklet of the route with detailed mapping was published in 2016. A revised second edition was published in Spring 2021.
The route can be easily broken down into short sections and is easily accessible by train or by bus. Walkers and runners are taken through stunning moorland landscapes, along side streams, rivers, canals and reservoirs, across farmland, and through moorland and our hospitable historic communities - where refreshments are readily available.
For more details, see wawotley.org.uk/welcome-way/. Details of how to buy the guidebook on-line are given, but can also be purchased from bookshops and other outlets across the area for £5.99.
