Full Walk Details

You can start this route from either New Mills or Hayfield, and it's 2.5 miles between the two former stations. So 5 miles in all. There's a tourist centre at Hayfield, with free leaflets about the trail, the wildlife and the industrial past (textiles) and a map so you can see where you're going. The route itself is very simple as you just stay on the old railway.
