Friends of Wharfedale Greenway
The Wharfedale Greenway is a planned multi-use path along the Wharfe Valley. It will connect towns & villages like Pool-in-Wharfedale, Otley, Menston, Burley-in-Wharfedale, Ilkley & Addingham, providing a scenic, traffic free route.
Water great idea! Ilkley Town Council has installed a new water bottle refill station, enabling residents and visitors to fill their water bottles free of charge.![]()
The new refill station is available at the South Hawksworth Street Car Park, located on the outside of the public conveniences, facing the car park.![]()
