Love the reservoirs at Macclesfield Forest. Great to see the reflections in the water on a calm day.

Bramhall Park is a woodland and parkland adjoined to Bramall Hall, a Tudor manor house with a history dating back to the Middle Ages. You can explore the grounds and observe a variety of wildlife along the park's trails.

A great place to park and take in the myriad of walking, running and riding opportunities in this lovely part of Cheshire.

Alderley Park is a peaceful area made up of quiet woodland, lakes, and ponds, all connected by a network of well-kept paths. Alderley Park was previously the grounds of a stately home owned by the Stanley family in the 1600s. It is now the site of a corporate centre and laboratory but it still open for the public to enjoy a stroll around.

Nice park with wood walks.

There is a lovely pub halfway around the reservoir which makes for a perfect resting spot.

Bramhall is a great place to ride, plenty of winding roads about & lots of places within reach in every direction.

close your mouth up the climb! lots of bugs

Beware of cars pulling out of houses, some of driveways are sharp and the cars have to pull out slightly to actually see what’s on the road

Redesmere is a lovely place to stop in the evening as it can provide some lovely sunsets. The climb from here is quite short but the roads are narrow so be wary of cars not wanting to give way. Once you've reached the top grab a drink looking out over the Cheshire Plains.

There are a number of downhill tracks in the forest, don't be tempted to ride down these on gravel bikes unless you have an aggressive tread. Forest floor is mainly rotten pine needles, and whilst it is rideable, even in dry whether it is incredibly slippery

Relatively easy. No major steeps, easy quite roads in the suburbs. Very pretty ..bramhall park..was gorgeous! Nice houses for the 1% lol

Nice climb from Redesmere along quiet lane to "Ron's Railings". The climb is rewarded by great views across to Jodrell Bank and the Cheshire Plain. Just be aware of other riders and cars coming down round a couple of tight narrow bends. Much better to go up than down this hill as there is a lot of gravel and sand if travelling fast. Continue on at the top to Henbury or Gawsworth, or take first right to Over Alderley via Birtles Lane.

Trentabank Reservoir supplies the town of Macclesfield with drinking water. Although a working environment, Trentabank and the conifer forests are a haven for wildlife. The site has more than 20 breeding pairs of herons and is one of the best places to see them in the Peak District. You can also observe birds of prey, red deer and wading birds at certain times of year.

Supplies the town of Macclesfield with drinking water.

Four reservoirs to see here, two of which provide drinking water to Macclesfield. There are mainly pine trees in the forest. Cheshire's two highest points overshadow the forest so keep scanning the horizon for Shining Tor and the peak of Shutlingsloe, which is often called the 'Cheshire Matterhorn' thanks to its Toblerone-esque shape.

Picturesque lake and Tudor Hall.
