Otley isn't just a really characteristic town, it's also mad about cycling, not least because it is the home of Lizzie Armitstead, Olympic road race silver medallist at London 2012. Loads of cafes and a whole lot of charm.

Tittybottle Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Tittybottle park, formerly Manor Parade Gardens, is the smallest park in Otley. A slim stretch of greenery alongside the river Wharfe, with plenty seating to watch the ducks and boats go by, ideally with some fish and chips.

View of Kirby Lane

Highlight • Viewpoint

A very popular road for local cyclists, with a great view on both sides. If you're coming from Wetherby you'll have climbed to get here so you'll have earned it!
