Overview

A linear walk and accessible at both ends by train, tram and bus.
Start point St Peter’s Square tram stop Manchester, end point Sale Water park tram stop. Toilet, pub and cafe facilities available, but please bring a packed lunch.
This should be an interesting and enjoyable walk, and not all too urban in that we follow the Bridgewater Canal towpath, for some way, then pass through parks and open green spaces.

For more information please contact Sarah, the walk leader direction on 07906 570866
