Great Walks In Tameside!

 

40 Great Scenic Countryside Walks In And Around The Borough Of Tameside

My name is Bill Murney and I have been walking the varied footpaths and trails of Tameside for many years.

The majority of  people do not realise the great variety of countryside walks available to them in and around the borough of Tameside.

This site is dedicated to giving you the opportunity to explore and learn more about your own area, as well as trekking further afield.

The main reason I decided to write these books was the lack of up to date information available to people in this area. That has now been rectified.

 

 

 

• Perhaps you are a person who would like to lose weight or just get rid of that heavy waistline.

• Maybe you feel regular exercise would improve your overall general health, fitness and well being, which of course it would.

• Or perhaps you see that sitting in front of the TV most of your leisure time is a path to an early grave.

THE WALKS

 

• All the walks in volumes 1 and 2 of ‘Walks In Tameside’ are circular, so you will arrive back at your starting point. Some walks may take in more than one town or even stray into a different borough. Inevitably some tracks are repeated on more than one walk.
  

 

• Walks in the ‘Way’ and ‘Trail’ guides are linear and come with suggestions for dividing them into easily managed sections.
  

 

• All times are approximate as you may walk faster or slower than the times indicated. No allowance has been made for snack or photographic stops.
  

 

• The text for walks is deliberately quite detailed as most walking guides are at best difficult to follow and in some cases unintelligible especially to someone new to route finding.
  

 

• Anyone who is reasonably fit can enjoy all the walks listed. Walks are graded either easy, easy to moderate, moderate, moderate to hard, or hard. The gradings take into account the distance as well as the terrain. Experienced walkers will have no difficulty with any of the walks but the inexperienced or occasional walker may wish to start with the easy walks.
  

 

• The majority of the walks will take around 1-2 hours to complete but for those who enjoy longer walks two in the same location can be combined to give a greater distance.
