Training in Adel & Wharfedale

Pools, golf and green belt.

Adel and Wharfedale is a council ward rather than one place. It covers Adel, Cookridge, Holt Park, Bramhope and Pool-in-Wharfedale, and most of the venues on this page are in Cookridge and Holt Park. The two big ones are Holt Park Active, the council centre with a 25 m pool, a learner pool, a hydrotherapy pool, a 70-station gym and a sports hall, and Bannatyne's health club at Cookridge Hall. Leeds Aikido trains at Holt Park, and Cookridge has a Pilates studio and a yoga class.

Golf is the other big draw: Cookridge Hall has a course and driving range, and Headingley Golf Club in Adel is the oldest in Leeds. Adel Crag has 17 recorded climbing routes, and the Meanwood Valley Trail ends at Golden Acre Park. Plenty here to share with a training partner, from a Holt Park swim to a walk up the trail.
