Winter Hill
Enjoy a walk to Winter Hill on the West Pennine Moors in Lancashire.
The walk begins in Rivington Country Park and takes you to the 1,496 feet (456 m) high summit on a series of footpaths.
After leaving the country park you ascend crossing Rivington Moor with fine views of Lower Rivington Reservoir and Anglezarke Reservoir. You continue towards the village of Belmont where there is the opportunity for a short detour to the pretty Belmont reservoir. After leaving Belmont you ascend towards the summit of the hill where you will see the Winter Hill TV Mast. From here there are fabulous views towards Greater Manchester, Blackpool Tower, Jodrell Bank Observatory, Snaefell in the Isle of Man and the Lake District mountains. The descent takes you to Crooked Edge Hill and Horwich before returning to the country park.
