周辺のスポット/アトラクション・トップ20

Take your time down this section as it can get quite busy with people, dog walkers, and cyclists. Some sections are newly laid tarmac but other areas are hardstanding compacted stone. The canal does narrow in parts but all ridable with caution at the locks.

Repairs to the cycle track started on 16th June 2025. Expected to last 3 months. There are signs in place to say the track is closed in places, however, I managed to complete my ride by taking minor detours. Just be aware different parts may be closed on different days.

Nice walks around there

Interesting town with character

Views for days! But extremely bleak when it wants to be. Nice early tickbox when walking the Pennine Way

Handmade Bakery is a popular choice for a decent pastry and coffee. Get them at opening time.

Part of the quarried crag of Pule Hill, the area can be popular with rock-climbers on the least windy days and paragliders on other days. The arch is one of the highlight, but the whole crag offers a beautiful landscape as well as views of the valley below. Easily accessible from Marsden, you can include this spot as part of a short walk; or a much longer hike taking in Black Hill and the Marsden Moors.

This hill is just outside Marsden. Not very high (437 above see level) it is short and steep pull up to reach the top. The trig point offers beautiful views of Redbrook Reservoir. As it was used for quarrying at some point, there are interesting Crags along the way, including the well-known Pule Arch. You will only be able to spot from from walking to the top. Those crags can be popular with rock-climbers on the least windy days and at this is quite generally quite a windy spot, you may spot some paragliders in the area. I saw a few sheep along the route; please keep dogs on leash if you are walking up the the hill.
