Hills around Marple

Join John and Andrew for a hill walk from Marple. After following a short section of the Peak Forest Canal to visit the impressive Aqueduct which crosses the River Goyt we will  pass under the aqueduct to follow the Etherow Valley through the popular Etherow and Werneth Country Parks  After reaching the Derbyshire Border we will cross the valley and head back to Marple over the little visited Ludworth Moors with fine views across to Kinder Edge to the East and Cheshire and beyond should the weather is kind. Finally passing through the hamlet Mill Brow and a visit to Mellor Church before finishing in Marple Bridge with several pubs should anyone require a well earned drink.
