Excellent dog walking territory through attractive woodlands that are part of the Mersey Forest. Paths are steep in places but are well surfaced and maintained. There is a nice 45 minute 1.
There's a choice of three short dog walks on well-signed footpaths here - ideal for a poochie pitstop. This is part of the Mersey Forest and now a nature reserve.

Wonderful dog walking around Crompton Moor.
Really nice place for a dog walk, and it's a popular choice. Definitely worth checking out the walk leaflets in the visitor centre if you want to explore more exciting walks.
This is doggy dashing paradise on a section of the Pennine Way long distance footpath. Despite the lack of facilities for drivers, for active dogs this really is as good as it gets.
This dog walk looks really close to the M62 but don't be fooled - it's not close by road! Instead you can easily get there on the old Roman road, the A640.
