Great steady ride for two old gentlemen? in their 70s

Great pub with large beer garden at the back. Next to the old Higher Poynton railway station on the Middlewood Way. Also next to a cafe (for ice creams etc) and the Macclesfield Canal.

A small, bustling town on the edge of the Peak District, with numerous independent cafés, shops and pubs. During the Industrial Revolution, Bollington was a centre for cotton mills, quarries and coal mines. Many of the historic mills are still standing, now mostly converted to apartments.

Cafe was open today. Very nice coffee and a delicious cheese and onion pie

Middlewood Way is an 11-mile (16-km) traffic-free greenway linking Macclesfield and Marple. This mostly flat route winds through fields and small towns like Bollington. While not as scenic as trails like Tissington, it’s still a charming ride. Shared with walkers and horse riders, some sections require caution and slower speeds due to limited space. In wet weather expect muddy conditions, with a slick surface that can leave you messy. In dry weather, the hardpack path offers a smooth and enjoyable ride.

One of the best places in the area to observe a sunset

Nice little crossroads with benches under the tree. Good spot to take a breather or have a snack.

The Weston Bakery - nice spot for breakfast! Closed on Sundays.

Nice Market town with a few good coffee stops

The Cat & Fiddle Whisky Distillery stands at the top of the famous climb. There is a bar at the distillery, you can also take a tour or visit the shop.

Great place to stop for a cuppa and essential snackage. Homemade cakes and flapjacks, Eccles cakes prominent on the counter and excellent brews.

Viaduct, Middlewood Way

Macclesfield is a vibrant town nestling within Cheshire countryside. The town was once famous for its thriving silk industry.
