Cragg Vale in late Summer
“A lush Pennine wooded valley of outstanding natural beauty, surrounded by grouse moors and close to the Pennine Way and the Calder Hebble Navigation canal system”

On this site you will find information on Cragg Vale in Calderdale, West Yorkshire, UK. You can access an outline of its past history, and take a photographic tour of our locality. You can also get information on our local ROBIN HOOD INN village pub and community rooms and The Hinchliffe Arms country restaurant and bar, also in the village.

Cragg Vale is a lush steep-sided wooded valley of outstanding natural beauty in the county of West Yorkshire, only 7 miles from the Lancashire border. It nestles amongst the peat moors that surround it on all sides, and provides a stunning verdant contrast to their austere beauty. We are two shakes of a lambs tail from the Pennine Way, where it approaches Stoodley Pike.

It’s 8 miles from Halifax and 3 miles from Hebden Bridge. The nearest village is Mytholmroyd 1.3 mile away in the valley bottom. We have a village church of St. John the Baptist in the Wilderness, and an official touring caravan site for visitors.

The Pennine Way and the Calderdale Way criss-cross the valley, both being magnets to casual and committed walkers alike. The river Calder and the canal system are both close by and provide interesting an varied recreational activities.

For further information see our page About Cragg Vale, and use the navigation bar top left to move around our site. We have our very own CRAGG VALE COMMUNITY web site that details local activity groups such as History, Carbon Neutral and Environmental Improvement - well worth a look.
