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:

Tegg’s Nose Country Park is located close to Macclesfield in Cheshire on the western edge of the Peak District National Park and is owned and managed by Cheshire County Council. It is a popular area for walking and attracts visitors from the local area and beyond who come to the park to enjoy the stunning views of the park and across the Cheshire plain as well as learn more about the history of the area.

 

There is evidence of activity in the area since the Bronze age including a Burial Chamber and lots of examples of how the Country Park has been shaped by its past use for quarrying, from the 16th century to as recently as 1955. As a reminder of this past there are still examples of the equipment that was used to quarry the sandstone for visitors to see, including a jaw crusher used to crush the quarried rock into smaller pieces.

 

Views from Tegg’s Nose overlook nearby Macclesfield Forest and across to the summit of Shutlingsloe which is the second highest point in Cheshire as well as the Telecoms Tower on Sutton Common and the Macclesfield Canal. On clear days you can also see as far as the Welsh Hills and Liverpool in the east across the Cheshire plain.

 

From the Tegg’s Nose summit at a height of 380m or 1246ft there are views over the two reservoirs in the Country Park which are Bottoms Reservoir built in 1850 and the smaller Tegg’s Nose Reservoir constructed slightly later in 1871.

Food & Refreshments (payable by you)

After a 6 mile circular we will grab something to eat at the Leather’s Smithy public house which dates back to 1812. See their menu here http://www.leatherssmithy.com/menu.html
