Five canal-side walks with scenic views in Greater Manchester

On a sunny spring day, Greater Manchester’s canals really come into their own. With water glistening in the sun and trees blooming with blossoms, you can’t beat a canalside walk at this time of year.

There are no challenging inclines or complicated routes to worry about either, so just follow the towpath and soak up the views. From urban routes which take you through the heart of the city, to idyllic moorland stretches, there’s a variety of waterside walks to do across the region.

Now that brighter weather is here we’ve rounded up some of the best canalside walks below. If you’re looking for more inspiration when it comes to getting outside and enjoying the sunshine, then check out these parks.
