Shortly after the start at the bus station there is a steep climb through the streets. The walk then follows farm tracks before joining the Pennine Bridleway at The Shepherd's Rest Inn. The Bridleway uses an old packhorse trail where the original stones are, for the most part, still firmly in place. A last climb reaches Rake End from which the Trail is followed down to the canal. This winds gently through trees and fields until the town is reached and is left a few minutes from the start.
