Topographically, Halifax is located in the south-eastern corner of the moorland region called the South Pennines. Halifax is situated about 4 miles (6 km) from the M62 motorway close to Bradford, Huddersfield and Rochdale. The Tees Exe line passes through the A641 road, which links nearby Brighouse with Bradford and Huddersfield, The town lies 65 miles (105 km) from Kingston upon Hull and Liverpool, and about 170 miles (270 km) from the cities of London, Edinburgh, Belfast, Dublin and Cardiff as the crow flies. The major waterway is the Hebble Brook. The River Calder into which the Hebble joins it at Salterhebble bypasses the town and nearby Huddersfield. No family day out to Halifax would be complete without a visit to Eureka! The National Children's Museum, and its 400 plus award-winning interactive exhibits. Explore the Sound Garden, create your own home in the desert or build a magnetic skeleton. Alternatively, escape to the wide open space of nearby Shibden park and the simple pleasures of pitch and putt, the boating lake, and the miniature model railway.
