HEBBLE TRAIL- click on Red Text for links to other pages
A superbly scenic route (especially in summer when the damp and shaded
valley bottoms are filled with green) and a rotue with good commuter
potential. Starting at Halifax rail station (with the magnificent 18th
century Piece or Cloth Hall nearby), you follow the line of the old
Hebble
Branch Canal. At first you are alongside Hebble Brook before joining
the
canal towpath proper at Salterhebble Basin. A short way on you meet the
Calder & Hebble Canal - still well-used by boats, walkers and cyclists
today. Head east here and you will get to Elland whilst going west
will
get
you to Sowerby Bridge where you can join the Calder Valley Cycle Route.
A route with great potential!
