Attractions of the region include organised Brontë walks which take place most weekends. There are vintage train weekends regularly, there’s an annual beer festival at Haworth, plus 40s and 60s weekends, and music festivals in the nearby area. Plenty to do, then, without going too far from home. Steam train enthusiasts will love Upwood’s proximity to the Keighley and Worth Valley Steam Railway, which has a programme of special events throughout the year including guided tours of locomotive workshops and even opportunities to get involved and volunteer your services to the heritage railway attraction! This is one of the leading heritage railways in the UK and is among Yorkshire’s best known tourist attractions. It is owned, operated and managed principally by volunteers. Other attractions of the region that are great places for days out include the famous and spectacular Malham Cove, a limestone formation – a curved cliff at the head of a valley that was originally the site of a waterfall caused by a melting glacier; this is a briliant area for walking.
