クルーグリーンのおすすめツーリングルート

A wonderful example of a lock bridge, and a great spot for a BAAB (bike against a bridge) photo. It's peaceful and picturesque, you might even spot a canal boat or two.

„Today the Salt Line runs through farmland and woodlands, with streams, pools and rough grassland. Wild primroses brighten up the steep cutting at Roughwood Hollow while later in the year the delicate flowers of scabious and harebell can be seen on the banks. Areas of willow and hazel are coppiced regularly. This is an ancient woodland practice in which trees are cut every few years to produce timber that would have been traditionally used for thatching spars, barrel hoops, hurdles and baskets. Sheltered glades are created where flower and insects thrive, until the trees re-grow and the process begins again. Some areas are managed as wild flower meadows while others are left fairly wild and just cut back enough to keep the path clear. Look out for Bullfinches and Yellowhammers that feed on buds, berries and seeds along the Salt Line.“ Quelle: https://visitcheshire.com/trails/the-salt-line

Apples, redcurrants, cherries and a bunch of other fruit bearing trees, needs some love but a really neat idea

Plenty of fruit for all visitors on lovely gravel track next to Astbury Mere

You dont see houses like this anymore! There are obviously well loved by the current owners

Sorry couldn't resist the ice cream before I took the photo.! By the way, at least 15 flavours available, but Im absolutely a vanilla person only :)

A working farm selling much of its produce in the farm shop. Stop for lunch, just an ice cream or to buy one of many unusual gifts. Check out the photos! Great children's play areas, indoor and out ( small cost )

You can use the byway just off the main canal footpath
