Description

The North Cheshire Way is one of Cheshire's longest paths. It is 113km (70 miles) long, running approximately eastwards across some of Cheshire's most beautiful countryside from Hooton railway station on the Wirral peninsula to Disley railway station on the edge of the Peak District, where it connects with the Gritstone Trail.

It was developed by The Mid-Cheshire Footpath Society as the brainchild of former member David Kinsell of Chester, who sadly did not live to see its completion.
