Hiking

There are many fine viewpoints for appreciating Manchester's urban sprawl and this is another one. It lies just off the Gritstone Trail, a long-distance footpath between Disley and Kidsgrove through Cheshire's Peak District. Look out for planes taking off and landing from Manchester Airport.

Ground rock solid.
