WWR Walking Routes
Explore Our Walking Maps
Discover a growing collection of walking routes created by EPIKS through the Walk Wheel Ride initiative. These maps are designed to help you explore local landscapes using sustainable, active travel, whether that’s on foot or combined with public transport.
Each route has been carefully developed to be easy to follow, accessible, and enjoyable at your own pace.
Guided Nature Walks from Huddersfield Railway and Bus Stations
In 2025, we developed a series of walking routes from the stations in Huddersfield, making it easy to access nature and green space from the town centre. As part of our programme of events we took groups on these guided nature walks and the feedback was so great, we wanted to be able to share the routes with everyone! Below you can download the different maps or click here to follow along on your device.
