Honley Wood from Meltham
Our view
Follow the sign for a public bridleway next to the entrance to Lu’s Place café, walking between industrial areas to bear right into peaceful woodland. At the first fork bear left. Ignore minor paths to either side to pass springs before rising, after a mile (1.6km), gently away from Meltham’s industrial hum. Eventually the path drops to pass through another metal portal, into a track.
In 60yds (55m) it meets a better-surfaced lane; continue ahead for 10yds (9m), then pass through a gap stile on your right signed ‘Meltham Way’. This carries you back into the woods on a muddy, ascending path, topping out just beyond a large rock outcrop at a T-junction of paths.
