Chevin Forest Park

Stunning panoramic views

Johnny Lane
Otley
Leeds LS21 3JL
United Kingdom

Offering superb panoramic views of the Wharfe Valley, this woodland nature reserve is an attraction that draws visitors from all over Yorkshire and beyond. Probably named from a derivation of the Celtic word cefn (meaning "ridge"), the Chevin comprises over 700 acres of elevated woods and ancient paths—perfect for picnics, walking and horse riding. The paths culminate in a stunning rocky viewpoint overlooking Otley—historic market town and birthplace of the celebrated 18th-century furniture maker, Thomas Chippendale.
