Although it passes through the heartlands of the 'Industrial North', the path is surprisingly scenic. As well as the beautiful countryside, the route features the mile long Burnley Embankment (up to 60 feet above ground level) and the amazing Bingley Five Rise staircase. Both are listed among the 'Seven Wonders of the Waterways'.
