The Coach Rambles have pick up points at Chequerbent off the A6, post code BL5 3JP at 7.45am and Spa Road, Bolton, BL1 4LD at 8.00am. These are full day rambles and you should bring food & drink and all weather walking clothes. The quoted finishing times is the expected completed walk time at the end of route. We do not provide estimates of the return times to Bolton, as journey times can vary.
GM Ringway trails circumnavigate the Greater Manchester boundary and use the routes provided by the “Go Jauntly” App. All walks use public transport, please check the current timetables as schedules can change. Please bring a packed lunch and drinks. We recommend suitable clothing and sturdy shoes or boots on all our walks.
