The Headwaters Trail connects bridleways and greenways that take you over Pennine moors to the source - the 'head of the waters' - of the River Calder above Todmorden in the South Pennines, the River Aire high above Malham in the Yorkshire Dales and the River Don above Peniston in the Peak District.
Along the way we travel across farmers' double track on millstone grit, singletrack on limestone, fast flowing gravel trails through oak woodland and quality 'traffic-free' greenways on canal towpaths and reclaimed railway lines.

The Source to Sea Trail connects tracks on the moors where 10 of Yorkshire finest rivers rise and flow. We pass through places as diverse as Hebden Bridge, Keld, Whitby, York and Selby and cross three National Parks - Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors and the Peak District. We pas over the Humber Estuary where 24 major rivers converge and flow into the body of the North Sea. The return leg takes us over fast flowing tracks on the level floodplain before climbing over many hills and valleys to reach the Calder Valley.
