Overview

The walk will start and finish at Turton Tower where’s there’s a great little cafe and gift shop! The walk will climb up Turton Heights before dropping down to Delph Reservoir and through some old woods. We will walk round part of Turton Reservoir before reaching Entwistle where we join Wayoh Reservoir and return via Turton Bottoms 

There will obviously be some mud and boggy sections so come suitably attired!
