The Sandstone Trail

The Sandstone Trail is a thirty four mile footpath that runs down the centre of the county of Cheshire in England. Following the mid Cheshire Sandstone Ridge it offers a variety of walking through forests, across farmland and along sandstone escarpments that give great views across the Cheshire plain into North Wales.  It can be walked in a day as an endurance challenge, or over a more leisurely two or three days. Click on the walk to read the post or use the interactive map to see the route.
