A BRADFORD Scout group completed an epic and challenging 20km walk around the district.
The 68th Bradford Scout Group, which is based at Wyke, celebrated the achievement of their young Scouts who conquered the Aire Valley Scouts' Baht 'At Walk on Sunday.
This challenging 20km trek, starting and finishing at Bingley Scout HQ, pushed the boundaries for many participants.
The route wound its way through the picturesque Yorkshire Dales, taking in the villages of Cullingworth and Harden, as well as the outskirts of Blackhills Campsite.
For a unique twist, the scouts even traversed the manicured fairways of Keighley Golf Course.
This accomplishment holds particular significance as the majority of the participating Scouts were younger members, some of whom had only recently transitioned from Cubs.
Leaders praised the youngsters’ unwavering determination and teamwork as they tackled the impressive distance, which they said embodies the true spirit of Scouting.
"We are incredibly proud of each and every one of our scouts," said Evelyn Haigh, group leader for the 68th Bradford Scouts.
"Not only did they conquer a remarkable distance, but they also explored hidden gems of the Yorkshire countryside, including the beautiful Bingley St Ives estate, creating memories that will undoubtedly last a lifetime."
