Overview

We meet at 10am at Tree Tops Cafe, Sale Water Park, next to the free car park (toilets available) just two minutes from J6 on the M60 for this flat and easy walk around two waterparks and along the River Mersey. We walk down to Jacksons Boat, along the River Mersey, visit the secret orchard, through Kenworthy Woods for a coffee stop in Chorlton Water Park (toilets available). We continue around the water park to join the Trans Pennine Trail, walk around Sale Water Park and back to the car park.

No stiles, dogs welcome.
