Spend and hour or so exploring the River Worth, so often hidden from view in Keighley.
Starting at Ingrow West station, you will walk part of the route of it taking in a series of viewpoints and riverside paths. Dragonflies and damselflies may be seen hunting over the water. Kingfishers can be glimpsed waiting in overhanging trees watching for fish. So every so often pause, listen and look. There is more wildlife on this lovely river than you might imagine.
You'll find Dalton Mills on your way by the River Worth, once the largest textile mills in Yorkshire, employing over 2000 workers. Everything from Peaky Blinders to Downtown Abbey has been filmed there.
Accessibility - this walk includes riverside footpaths, many of which are unmade and muddy. It has several flights of steps.
Keighley town centre can be easily reached by train and bus.
We hope you enjoyed your walk, we have many others available to download.
