Plan and Timings 2

Lean on Me Challenge 2017

As with all of the events, the Halifax Hike begins at

Copley at 9am. The first six miles of the event is

alongside the canal. After a little short of three

miles, the first stage ends in Elland on the banks of

the canal by the Fox and Barrel pub. Then the

walkers will cross Elland Bridge and return to the

canal towpath heading for Brighouse. From

Brighouse the route heads to Hipperholme where a

30 minute lunch break is planned by Kendall’s Café

From here, the walkers will steadily climb up

through Shelf and Queensbury as far as The

Raggald’s pub just the other side of Mountain. Then

they will head back to Halifax largely down Keighley

Road before arriving at the Trinity Road office. The

last stage then heads back to Copley via a trip down

into Sowerby Bridge. Walks should reach the end

just before 5pm
