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.

The route has been designed to run close to the major urban areas of Merseyside, north Cheshire and Manchester - with easy access by car or public transport. Easy to use, it is waymarked throughout with yellow discs marked "NCW". Places of interest along the route include the Wirral, Helsby Hill, Frodsham Hill, Weaver Valley, the Anderton Boat Lift, Marbury Country Park, Manchester Airport, Styal Quarry Bank Mill and Country Park, The Edge at Alderley, Adlington Hall, Lyme Park and Disley.
