Ilkley travel guide

Things to Do

  • Walks on Ilkley Moor and the views from the famous Cow and Calf rocks.
  • White Wells, the historic bath house on the edge of the moor.
  • Riverside walks along the Wharfe and, in summer, the open-air lido.
  • Bolton Abbey and the Yorkshire Dales, a short drive up the valley.

The town centre has a good choice of cafés, restaurants and independent shops, so a car is not essential for a short stay.

Getting There

Ilkley has direct trains to Leeds and Bradford, and the nearest airport is Leeds Bradford. To explore further, the castle town of Skipton, the spa town of Harrogate and the city of Leeds are all within easy reach.

Weather on the moor can change quickly, so bring a waterproof and sturdy footwear for the walks.
