Hebden Bridge is known as the "Pennine Centre", taking its name from the packhorse bridge over Hebden Water. The town developed in late medieval times as a river-crossing and meeting point of packhorse routes from Halifax to Heptonstall, Burnley and Rochdale. The Pennine hills and valleys around Hebden Bridge have long been popular with visitors and walking is a popular activity, whether just strolling along a riverside path, or following the stone causeways that mark the old packhorse routes. Britain's first National Trail, the Pennine Way, passes close by, while the Calderdale Way, a 50-mile (80 km) circular route around the Calder Valley, skirts the town. There are many excellent mountain-biking and horse-riding routes, including the newly-opened Mary Towneley Loop. Hebden Bridge is also in easy reach of a wide range of attractions, such as the Bronte Parsonage museum, the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway and Shibden Hall.
