マンチェスターの滝・トップ20

That Birchen Clough Waterfall scramble looks like a fantastic challenge, especially with the detour! It’s the perfect spot for a bit of adventure after a long week. I actually spent my downtime yesterday playing at https://123games.io while planning my next hike, and now I’m definitely adding this Peak District loop to the list!

Yarrow Valley Country Park was first established in 1987 on land previously used for bleaching, dyeing, calico printing, and mining. Once industrial activity had ended, the site lay derelict for 30 years until the late 1980's when Chorley Council acquired the site. Yarrow Valley Country Park, a 700-acre facility run by Chorley Council, includes a café (treeface) built using Heritage Lottery funds. There is a play area for children, with a dog protection order, and also an angling agreement at Yarrow Valley Country Park, which gives the fishing rights at Birkacre to Wigan & District Angling Association (WDAA). Yarrow Valley Country Park has been awarded Green Flag status since 2004. The 'park' is used by (dog) walkers, runners & cyclists. Share with care :)

Tree down

Perfect for cold dipping

Green route, make sure follow the map as we didn’t and got lost

This park has so much to offer beautiful lakes waterfalls many different routes which is great for the kids and dog walkers

Really good fun part of the walk. We took our boys aged 11 and 8 and they loved it. It’s tiring and difficult in some parts - especially the last section up to the plateau.

The Crowden Clough path follows Crowden Brook from Upper Booth up onto the Kinder plateau. The path is rough, rocky and steep. It's a grade 1 scramble in places but all the hard sections can be avoided. It's often wet and the path uses the stream bed in sections. Really good fun either up or down.
