There are lots of walks on Otley Chevin. From the top you can see over the Wharfe Valley over to Brimham Rocks towards Harrogate in the distance. IN the other direction you may see planes coming in to land at Leeds/Bradord Airport & in the far distance there is the Emily Moor TV mast.

Wharfe (Wharfedale)
Aire (Airedale)

Magnificent walk
Pre-book Cavandish Pavillion parking. Fantastic walk up the Strid a notoriously dangerous stretch of the river Wharfe. Take care not to go too clsoe to the edge with its precarious undercut ledges.
