Full description:

Starting in New Mills, we walk around the stunning millennium walkway with views over the River Goyt. We then follow the Peak Forest Canal for around 3 miles before walking back down to the River Goyt. From there, we head uphill and get views over the valley before descending back to New Mills.
Generally good terrain but suggest good boots as muddy in places.
Please bring lunch with you as well will have a short stop. It's also worth bringing a sit mat or similar with you. At the end of the walk we can perhaps have a drink at the Torrs Vale Mill.

Public transport or car sharing options:
