Need to recover from some Saturday night shenanigans? Join us on a relaxing Sunday walk!
Social Circle brings together people just like you looking to meet others in Manchester to share fun activities and experiences. Your friendly host will personally welcome you to ease any nerves and text you on the day. Don't worry if you're coming on your own - so is everyone else!
Walking is simple, free and one of the easiest ways to get more active, become healthier and beat stress. But it can be boring walking the same routes on your own.
Calling all walkers: How would you like to explore some of the best walking routes in the Manchester area and meet new people at the same time?
If you live and work in Manchester, then you may have heard that breathtaking countryside and beauty spots can be found within easy reach of the city centre. Come walking with Social Circle to explore some of the best walking routes in the area , and meet some new people along the way.
The Route:
Rivington Pike is one of the best viewpoints in the North West of England. Our walk begins at Rivington Hall Barn where we will be having Sunday after our efforts.
This is a walk of amazing variations, both in places encountered and in the near and far views. Stroll through neglected gardens, visit Pigeon Tower and climb Rivington Pike, used to warn off the Spanish Armada. A quiet return on the banks of the reservoir encounters a replica of Liverpool Castle.
The walk is approximately 6 miles and is quite hard in places having to ascend a steep rocky bridleway but well worth it for the 360 degree views.
What our members say:
"Thanks for a wonderful walk around Dunham Massey. It was a beautiful sunny day. Ee took our time and we met and fed the deer. Perfect!" Nic
"I decided it was time to start getting active again. The easy pace and distances coupled with the promise of sunday lunch had me sign up for Social Circle straight away. As a bonus, I got a 10 day pass to my local gym too." Dave
