Hi guys,

I'm looking for some nice walks to go on with my dogs in Yorkshire but i'm struggling to find anything since i can't drive and have to rely on train services. I was wondering if anyone could recommend any walks that start near railway stations in Yorkshire.

thanks.

Come to Elsecar.

From the station walk down the hill.At the bottom is the Heritage Center with an information office with details of local walks

The Trans-Pennine Trail goes along the canal towards the Dearne Valley (starts behind the Center) or head up into the woods and around the lovely village of Wentworth.

Quite a lot of pubs in both areas do meals

depends where in s yorks you are - train from hudds to greenfield, then walk through the village on to Dovestones RSPB reserve, round the moors or resvrs, back to Greenfield for a pint in the Railway, right next to the station, well recommended.
Cheers
