Lymm Dam

Reviewed By ZIZAG - Wilmslow, United Kingdom

Lovely place to take you back in time . Started walk from Crouchley lane . Wandered down path to the Dam ,with lovely views . Then up to main A56 near St Mary's church .across the road to go down a steep steps to the Dingle to the village pond and weir . Checked all the shops and cafes and up to the Cross . Then Along by the Canal for a short walk and back to the bridge to go down a lane to look at the TPT Trans Pennine Trail going East to West . Nice and flat for walks and cycles . Then back to the village and sit by the Pond to take in the lovely surroundings . Then back up the Dingle retraceing our steps to cross main road again to the Dam . And followed the path to the Bongs . As far as the Wishing bridge circular route around the Dam, followed trail back to the start . Nice day out.

Spud Wood

Reviewed By lovinit88 - Manchester, United Kingdom

This is a great place for a family walk. It is an easy walk, mostly flat. There are some great rope swings dotted around which the kids loved. Would be great for bikes as lots of mud ramps etc.

Whitley Nature Reserve

Reviewed By ah185

This is a woodland walk around the lake. It starts at the entrance on Raddel Lane in Higher Whitley and does a full loop of the lake returning you to the entrance. It is about 1 mile in length with well kept paths and is suitable for walkers but not wheelchairs or pushchairs. The lake is beautiful with abundant bird and wildlife. The highlight for me was the vibrant green at one part of the lake and the sunlight shimmering in the water. I also saw blue dragonflies.
