Tips walking from Leeds
Walk across Monument Moor and turn right down Rampart Road. Instead of going up Delph Lane to access the trail turn left and continue up Woodhouse Street and take the next right up Woodhouse Cliff (as you walk up you will see the Leeds City Academy in front of you). Keep to the left hand-side of the pavement as you walk up, and after the houses end, you will see a gap in the hedge. This is Bedford Fields Forest Garden and is well worth your time to have a walk around. When you have finished admiring the Forest Garden, continue on the path up past the left hand-side of Leeds City Academy and follow it until you reach the end where you will meet the Meanwood Valley Trail. Turn left to continue your walk.
