Important Information

Distance: approx 7 miles

Terrain: some uneven paths, tarmac footpaths and roads. Some hills, one which is quite steep and long from Diggle. 

Toilets: at Limekiln just before start of walk. Some toilets in Delph about 2/3rds into the route.

Car parking: Wool Road canal car park. Dobcross OL3 5QR. From Uppermill, go under the viaduct, over the mini roundabout, and entrance to car park is a sharp left, just before the houses on opposite side of road. You're probably better carrying on past the Navigation pub and turning round at the mini roundabout.

If you need to borrow poles, please let Tina know when booking. 

Please dress appropriately for the weather, and don’t forget water, waterproofs (if necessary), suncream & bugspray! 

We will set off promptly. Please try to arrive 10mins early so you are ready to go.  

Please do not be offended if we do not wait whilst you get yourself sorted. We do a warm up close by so please do catch up.

Contact Tina directly if you are running late/need to cancel (07876 665 026). Similarly, if you book onto the walk less than 12hrs before the start, please text so we know to wait for you.

Location Notes:

From Uppermill, go under the viaduct, over the mini roundabout, and entrance to car park is a sharp left, just before houses on opposite side of road.
