Walk Name Birchen Clough Wintertime Wander
Description Park at Birchen Clough car park, we then take the Roman Road through the trees to Blackden View Farm, cross at Alport Bridge and then a climb up to Blackden Edge. We'll follow the path all along the edge until the junction of the Pennine Way, and return via the River Ashop and Ashop Clough (likely to be wet and muddy so good boots and gaiters recommended) and finally up through the trees to the car park.
