South-east, continuing on the Kirklees Way, past Brownhill Reservoir and on to Crossley’s Plantation. Around the edge of a wooded area then a U-turn north of Harden Clough.

The best map to use on this walk is the Ordnance Survey map of Bradford & Huddersfield, reference OS Explorer 288, scale 1:25,000. It clearly displays footpaths, rights of way, open access land and vegetation on the ground, making it ideal for walking, running and hiking. The map can be purchased from Amazon in either a standard, paper version or a weatherproof, laminated version, as shown below.
