Trans Pennine Trail: Bridgewater Canal Section

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Nice trail, which is a mixture of paths, gravel and mud. Plenty of walkers, cyclists and horses, so care needs to be taken for your own safety, as well as others.

Plenty of narrow gates to pass through, had to get off my bike at a few. Overall a pleasant experience to cycle along.
