The Outwood Trail follows a section of the former Manchester‑Bury–Rossendale railway, crossing the impressive Grade II-listed Outwood Viaduct. It offers a scenic trail through ancient woodland, heathland and grassland. It's mostly tarmac so suitable for most bikes.

Great place for a pit stop

A quaint little coffee and cake stop at the edge of some great riding and hiking.

Great view of the valley. Very busy with cars coming up the road getting to the Pike. They don’t often have vegan stock, so don’t count on them to refuel halfway. There’s a resident dog that is friendly, loves to come up to dogs on lead, if your dog is reactive on lead keep them away. Resident dog is free roaming.

Here at Prestolee Locks are the remains of six locks, in two flights of three, and in between the two flights was a passing pound where the lock-keeper's cottage was. The canal was closed down in 1961 due to a lack of commercial activity. It is a very interesting area, and I like that they have invested in the construction of the ‘Meccano Bridge’ footbridge here to replace the old horse bridge. It is quite funny too that the location is known locally as Nob End—nothing like a bit of northern humour!

If you enjoy hiking alongside pristine rivers and the sound of babbling brooks, then walking alongside the Bradshaw Brook is the place for you. There is also a weir here across the whole brook as the water comes out of Jumbles Reservoir.

A narrow cobbled pedestrian crossing.

Can be a bit boggy when wet but only recomend mtb
