From the main car park, head along Beck Hole Road until reaching the gates to the rail trail public footpath on the left. Continue on the path for around 1 mile, and shortly after passing Incline Cottage, take a right turn (1) and go through the two gates on the path leading into Beck Hole.

Turn left and after crossing the bridge (2), continue on the road as it ascends around a series of tight bends and before crossing the railway line. At this junction, turn right (3), and after reaching the cottages, continue to the right to stay on the footpath across the moors.

The path heads towards a farm on the right. At the point in which the path splits, take the path which bears slightly to the right (4) and down towards the railway bridge.

After crossing a footbridge over the beck - and under the railway which runs overhead, the path continues upwards via a set of steps and a styal on the left at the top of the steps.

Once climbing the styal, head straight, along the perimeter fence of a neighbouring field, over a second styal and through a narrow section enclosed by trees/hedges on each side. The road at the end of this section of the route is Beck Hole road, at which point turn left and follow the road back to the village.
