Take an Otley walking trail
Here at Visit Otley we have refreshed our four walking trails around the town and have made them environmentally friendly by ditching paper and going for digital-only versions. There are four of them in the series: Otley Shopping, Otley Family Riverside and Otley History, with a Best of Otley map showing highlights of the other three. They are downloadable in different formats, including accessible web versions, mobile-friendly PDFs, and interactive Google Maps and Google Earth versions.

Workshops at the Courthouse

Otley Boats
Otley Boats are back on the river for the summer. Take out a rowing boat or jump in one of their pedalos and head out for a spin on the lovely River Wharfe, once under Otley Bridge, it feels like you are a world away from the town itself.

Puffin Pottery
It’s England, it’s summer, there will inevitably be the occasional rainy day when you don’t want to be outside. If that’s the case, book into Puffin Pottery where the kids can paint their own pots while adults settle down to a nice cuppa.
