St Barnabas Church and Castley Lane

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A picturesque narrow lane that adds a little distance on the cut through from Pool in Wharfedale to Harrogate Road. The little church of St Barnabas has benches in the pretty grounds to stop for a snack!

Otley Town Centre

Highlight • Historical Site

Otley isn't just a really characteristic town, it's also mad about cycling, not least because it is the home of Lizzie Armitstead, Olympic road race silver medallist at London 2012. Loads of cafes and a whole lot of charm.

Tittybottle Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Tittybottle park, formerly Manor Parade Gardens, is the smallest park in Otley. A slim stretch of greenery alongside the river Wharfe, with plenty seating to watch the ducks and boats go by, ideally with some fish and chips.

Manor Garth Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Small park that can be incorporated into a walk around the other nearby parks (Wharfemeadows and Tittybottle).

It has several picnic tables and benches, so you can sit and enjoy the tranquility of river Wharfe.
