Overview

This is a moderate walk with a number of stiles, uneven ground which could be slippy, muddy stretches and several inclines. It includes the very scenic Gorpley Clough with several waterfalls and pleasant paths through fields. There are some lovely views and a short canal walk at the start. It's a very varied and rewarding walk.
