The South Yorkshire Way is the name for two interlinked Long Distance footpaths in the county of South Yorkshire. The Boundary Route is a 171-mile (275 km) route around the outskirts of the county, whilst the Central Route is a 98-mile (158 km) route through the heart of the county. Both trails start and end at the same points; Thorne North railway station and Dore & Totley railway station. They were devised by Andrew White in 2014 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the formation of South Yorkshire as a county.
