The Two Toms Walk is a linear walk from Whalley to Colne. It Celebrates two campaigners for access to the countryside -Tom Stephenson, the creator of the Pennine Way and Thomas A.Leonard, pioneer of cheap outdoor holidays and pastor in Colne, here in Pendle. The walk is in three sections. It can be completed as one long challenge walk or in shorter sections with public transport connections.
“Whatever the cost, it would be a worthy and enduring testimony -bringing health and pleasure beyond computation, for none could walk that Pennine Way without being improved in mind and body, inspired and invigorated and filled with the desire to explore every corner of this lovely island”
Tom Stephenson, writing in the Daily Herald 1935
