Bottoms to Torside Reservoir Walk

With a nice mix of flat trails along the water’s edge and uphill climbing across the moor, the Bottoms to Torside Reservoir Walk is a great route that can offer something for every type of walker. Setting out from the car park in Tintwistle, head south to cross the River Etherow before turning east to walk along the edge of the water. After making your way along the Bottoms, Valehouse, Rhodeswood, and Torside reservoirs, follow the trail north as it climbs uphill across the moor. After taking in the elevated views overlooking the valley, make your descent through the trees and pass through Valehouse Wood on the return journey to the car park where you began.
