    Tips

    March 2, 2022

    Dare you cross England’s tallest Aqueduct? An exhilarating experience for anyone looking for a truly unique day out - find yourself 100 feet above the beautiful River Goyt, crossing by boat or by foot.



    The Peak Forest Canal’s lower section ends with the Aqueduct, and the upper section ends near Marple Lime Kilns. The two are joined by a waterway staircase - a steep flight of 16 locks. Set against the ancient wildlife, it’s a beautiful contrast of ambitious industry and the natural world.



    You’ll come across rich woodland, breathtaking views and truly blissful calm - feed the ducks, take in the surroundings and feel part of an ancient legacy.
