This leg of the walk goes from Bolton on Dearne railway station to Tankersley Church. The first section over the old pit heaps behind Old Moor and round to the canal at Wombwell is uninspiring. The route takes on a different character once the canal is reached with pleasant easy walking through to Elsecar.

A navigational error at Elsecar added an extra mile onto the journey but we eventually found our way back on track. The path the took us through woods and fields to the finish at Tankersley church.

With several A-roads and the M1 to cross and some industrial areas to navigate this leg was not the most consistently scenic but passed through some pleasant areas.
