WALK No.9. 4 MILES. ALLOW 3Hrs.
THE PRAM PUSHERS PICTURES – CUE PUNISHING PROMENADE (THE 5 P’s WALK)
If undertaken on a regular basis the walk should loose a few pounds!
It reveals some fine views, and is fairly safe as there are farm and houses at regular intervals on route.
Leave Kirkgate Silsden, turning left on Howden Lane, then go left up Hawber Lane, taking a right into Brunthwaite Village (Some lovely old buildings here). Carry on; keeping to the right facing oncoming traffic, up Brunthwaite Lane pass the Golf Course, you are now on the “murder mile”. It’s a long pull up the hill, hence the name, so take your time, have a few stops both to enjoy the views and to get your breath back! At the top turn left along Lightbank Lane, enjoy the views. At the end turn left onto Brownbank Lane, continue until you turn left down Swartha Lane, then go right along Howden Lane back into Silsden.
SOME PEOPLE PREFER TO WALK IT IN REVERSE TRY IT!
