Tarnfield Park

This is a great place to stretch your legs on a weekend. No matter what the weather this place always seems to be busy. The path way around the tarn is suitable for little ones on bikes or wheel chairs. There’s a children’s play area, band stand, picnic tables, bike track, benches and plenty of parking.
I love visiting in the winter when the water is frozen over and the ground is covered in snow. It’s beautiful!
Just a note: as I am local to the area on my last visit I noticed a fair bit if litter not exactly at the tarn but the surrounding areas. If we all club together and bin our rubbish or even pick other peoples up and dispose if it we can all help keep this place looking nice for others :-)

Yeadon Tarn is a lovely place to visit if you have small children or dogs that need walking. With a nice dam to walk around, plenty of ducks and concrete pathway, its a surefire winner.
It features a bandstand, childrens park area and even has its own sailing club.
The park is open to the public all year round and has exciting views of the aeroplane strip at Leeds Bradford Airport. There are numerous picnic areas and fishing opportunities.
I prefer to visit extremely early in the morning to have a run and I must say, it is rather beautiful at sunrise…
