Summer Solstice Walk – 22nd June 2024 Ilkley

We had such a lovely time on Good Friday walking up to the Swastika Stone that I have decided to organise another walk. This time it will be close to Midsummer’s Day, on Saturday the 22nd of June. Please see further details below the picture:

Good Friday Walk to the Swastika Stone

Meeting Point 1 (for those who are ok with the incline to start with): White Wells Car Park, Ilkley  If there are no spaces, then you can park in Darwin Gardens or on Wells Road itself. Time of Meeting: 2pm. Length of walk: 1.5 hours in total (maximum)

Meeting Point 2 (for those wishing to cut out the first incline) – park part way up the Keighley Road. Click here for Meeting Point 2 location

Time of Meeting: 2:15pm (approximately, as you should wait for the first part of the group to meet you there). Length of walk: 1 hour in total

For those wishing to extend the walk beyond the Swastika stone, you can carry on the moor along Millennium way, click here for location.

If you are able to join us, but would like a lift please let Lesley know from where you would like a lift and how many of you. For those who can offer a lift to others please let Lesley know how much room you will have in your car.

The view at the top (near the Swastika stone) is amazing. You can see out to the Dales on a clear day. When we get there, I would love it if we could pause, pray and read out a scripture. Anyone who would like to say a prayer, or share a scripture please let Krys know through Lesley Murphy. You can walk further along the top after that or simply come back down the way we came.

I would suggest bringing a drink and a snack as well as suitable outerwear as it can be a little windy at the top!
