Other walks in the area

Lindow Common to Rossmere

Departure from Wilmslow (Cheshire East)

Lindow Common is a very popular area and is well worth a visit in its own right. The common is crisscrossed by numerous footpaths and contains the Black Lake. It’s worthwhile exploring areas away from Black Lake where there are some small pools and expanses of heather. There is a lot of conservation work being carried out on the common which is designed to keep its open aspect and to protect wildlife and fauna. It is designated as a site of special scientific interest.

St Olaf's Chapel & Alleyways in Pownall Park

Departure from Wilmslow (Cheshire East)

This interesting walk through Pownall Park takes in Carnival Fields and St. Olaf's Chapel which was built by the Boddington Family. Sadly, it is now just a ruin. Some of this route follows public footpaths through the Pownall Park area which are now are pretty much back alleys through the area.

Wilmslow to Mottram Hall

Departure from Wilmslow (Cheshire East)

Lovely parts of the walk are with swathes of Bluebells along the steep banks down to the River Bollin in Spring.

Fulshaw Cross to Alderley Golf Course

Departure from Wilmslow (Cheshire East)

Beautiful walk from Fulshaw Cross to Alderley Golf Course.

North Wilmslow Road

Departure from Wilmslow (Cheshire East)

Nice walk around Wilmslow and across the River Bollin.

Rotherwood Road to Lindow Moss

Departure from Wilmslow (Cheshire East)

This is a short walk around Lindow Moss. The area became famous when Lindow Man was discovered by peat cutters in August 1984. The footpath skirts the edge of Lindow Moss where peat is still extracted. There is a Lindow Moss website here and you can find information about Lindow Man here. This route keeps to the public footpaths, but there are many unofficial routes across the moss.
