Romiley and Marple
Romiley is just a few miles south from the southern border of Tameside. We set off from here on a watery walk that takes in the River Etherow and the Peak Forest Canal.

Glossop
For many people who live in Tameside, Glossop is the gateway to the Peak District. Although the previous walks have illustrated the fine countryside in the borough, this fine walk is too good to pass up.
