A 5.5 mile circular walk starting from Honey Bee Pub Car Park, Altrincham Road, Wilmslow, SK9 4LT.
From the Honey Bee Car Park we will head towards Bank House Farm, then follow a path along the edge of the woods in the direction of the River Bollin. We will enter the woods close to the Giants Castle Bridge, following the river, crossing Oxbow and Kingfisher Bridges before reaching Quarry Bank Mill, Styal. From there we will take a woodland path through Southern Woods to Twinnies bridge. Following a combination of quiet lanes and field paths we will arrive back at the Honey Bee in time for an optional pub lunch.
Please note this is route has been modified from the one initially published following the National Trust announcement of the closure of the Giants Castle Bridge. The route will now pass close to the bridge but will not cross over it.
