ウェリーブリッジのおすすめランニングルート

Beautiful view stretching across the grasslands and vibrant wildflowers of the nature reserve, towards the impressive New Mills Viaduct.

Gateway to the Goyt Valley, Whaley Bridge benefits from a great range of hiking options. Strolls along the Goyt or the Peak Forest Canal are wonderfully serene, while moorland adventures can be had to the popular Windgather Rocks. There are several pubs, restaurants and cafes in the town, while its also connected by rail to Manchester via the Buxton Line.

Built in the late 18th century, the Peak Forest Canal was designed to transport goods, such as limestone from Dove Holes to the Ashton Canal. These days, its towpaths are somewhat more serene and make for pleasant, flat walking surrounded by lovely countryside.

Watch for pesky tree fellas

Poo sticks anyone

Great short walk around the reservoir

Fernilee Reservoir was the first reservoir built in the Goyt valley and completed in 1938. It supplies all the water for Stockport. It is a popular walking area, and there is a 3 mile (5 km) woodland walk that goes around the entire reservoir. The walk along the eastern shore is particularly popular with dog-walkers and families with young children as it is on an old railway line. There is parking at the northern and southern ends.

Great area to practice beginners rock climbing (trad or bouldering). Easily accessible from the road. Crags are 8-10 m high.
