Overview

Join us for a tough but fantastic circular walk starting from Littleborough Station. The walk is 14 miles and includes moorland, reservoirs and the Rochdale Canal so expect some significant ascent and challenging terrain. Please ensure you come prepared with suitable walking boots and waterproofs etc.
This is a walk for experienced walkers only so if you are unsure if you will be comfortable on this walk then please do not attend. We have plenty of other suitable walks that you will enjoy.

Please note that we restrict the number of places available to Meetup as, unlike other groups, we have a large number of Ramblers Members who also attend our walks and who are not required to book as attending the walk via this app.

Ramblers members please remember to show your membership card or Phone Ap. (Otherwise, if not a Ramblers member please book a place via Hike on Lancashire on Meetup - suggested donation of £2 to cover meet-up costs. It is still excellent value for an organised walk, and day out with like-minded people. Or why not join us and be part of the Ramblers
