Beautiful wooded valley, covered with bluebells in spring, that has walks ranging from riverside to pine covered hills and from easy tracks to half-day adventures cumulating in spectacular views with 19th-century Gibson Mill serving refreshments at its heart.
Hardcastle Crags is a wooded Pennine valley in West Yorkshire, England, owned by the National Trust. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, it lies approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the town of Hebden Bridge and 10 miles (16 km) west of the town of Halifax. It gave the title to a poem by Sylvia Plath which was included in her 1960 debut collection, The Colossus and Other Poems.
