Leeds Dock and the waterfront
A walk along the Aire and the canal from the station to the dock, with bars on the water.
Start at Granary Wharf behind the station, follow the canal past the Dark Arches and the river past Brewery Wharf to Leeds Dock and the Armouries. It is a flat, pleasant twenty minutes with plenty of places to stop, and the water taxi will bring you back. Free, and best on a bright afternoon or a summer evening.
When it works
Outdoors: pick a dry day. Best afternoon, evening.
Good for a date, step-free visits and sunset.
