Guided Walk: Black as the Raven
Celebrate Yorkshire Day with us on a challenging walk to the highest point in West Yorkshire
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
This is a long hard walk with steep climbs and descents, and some off-path walking across rough, boggy moorland. We will visit local landmarks, including Black Hill and Raven Rocks. Aside from a sense of achievement at completing what is possibly our toughest guided walk, you'll be rewarded with fantastic views and a great day out.
