Marple Locks
Stretching over the course of one mile, it’s worth bookmarking this picturesque canal walk for when winter weather subsides. What makes it stand out in Greater Manchester’s long list of great walking locations is the series of fully-operating locks – 16 in total – an impressive feat of engineering. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, as you head towards Romiley you’ll come across the Marple Aqueduct, the highest canal aqueduct in England which features breathtaking stone archways.
