The path starts between 2 rows of trees and then bears left, off to the right behind the trees are the wind turbines at the Whitelees wind farm. The path is easy most of the way with a few moderate sections depending on the weather conditons, and can easily be covered in a strong pair of walking shoes except in really wet weather when boots or wellies are the order of the day. Keep following the path and you will soon pick up the river Calder which is with you the whole way depending which route you take.
The walk is popular with dog walkers and joggers and is about 3.5 miles and takes about an hour on the short route. In Autumn and winter it is not that busy, but in the spring and summer the central wooded section nearer the visitor centre is much more popular. After about 15 minutes you will reach a signpost where the route splits with a path leading up to the left to Langlands Moss. Ignore this path and continue down past sign and over a wooden bridge towards the Visitor Centre, the path then comes closer to the river.
Back later with more
