Beautiful walk on a sunny afternoon with my wife and kids. Not busy at all and we had a nice quiet walk where we could take our time and enjoy the views by the river and the kids even managed to put their feet in the freezing water for abit of fun! Be warned that one side of the river bank is a sheer drop with no fence and people with children or dogs would be best to avoid as we mistakenly went that side when we first got there. We started at Station Road and walked all the way down to the Cafe and came back up. Nice little gathering of old military vehicle enthusiasts and was fun for the children to take in the sights and sounds.
Beautiful walk, great for the kids to explore. Waterfalls and rockery are stunning. Stumbled across the fairies Chapel too which intrigued the children. We can't wait to go back and explore further.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Lovely nature reserve located on the edge of Rochdale. The main walk in the reserve follows an old railway line and over a viaduct, but you can also walk in the surrounding woods and river valley below the viaduct. It can be muddy in the winter, so wear a good pair of walking boots or wellies. I parked on the south end of Dell Road. You'll not be able to drive the full length of Dell Road since it's closed off at the moment, but you can still walk to Healey Dell. Good place to spend at least an hour. It's popular with walkers, runners, cyclists and dog walkers. There's tea rooms close by.
So long since I last visited this wooded valley it was like I’d never been there. The sat nav direction was good but there’s another way via Station Road up from Rochdale- on the Burnley road. We parked near the cafe and walked past a few houses then saw the way down to the river and waterfalls. The sunshine of the lovely day didn’t quite penetrate the woods initially but the drama of the waterfalls after considerable rain we’d had, was worth our visit. Lots of paths in different directions but we found the old railway line, walked the good path towards Whitworth then came back the same way before diverting to the left and by some lodges. These old railway lines are great for cyclists, horse riders and walkers. Sadly the cafe had run out of food- just drinks on offer but after the festive season that’s understandable. Will definitely return to the dell. Interesting to read about the industry that the valley supported. And we noticed the lack of litter!!!
Lovely place to take the family, my kids absolutely lived it, we have returned a few times and cant get enough of this beautiful place lots to do and see must try at least once wont be disappointed.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Beautiful place the tea rooms are too, but only open on a Thursday and Friday from 11am there's also an outside bar overlooking the river, very pretty, open till the 5pmVisited onWeekend
A little place of "Heaven" where my late Beautiful Precious Wife & I used to walk hand in hand and enjoying the Heritage TeaRooms with lovely friendly welcoming owners and their team xxxVisited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Lovely easy walk - has some very small uphill moments but nothing challenging
Very nice place for a hike or just a peaceful walk I visited in the summer and there was wildlife birds etc everywhere. There is a few WW2 bunkers in the woods as well as the area was used in WW2. I recently went back and found some cool waterfalls and some old water mill ruins this place is a lot bigger then I thought and well worth a walk.
The main access road is closed due to a land slip. If you take the local access Rd its very steep, narrow, with only a few passing spaces. Better to park on Station Rd. Tea room has been renovated and offers a good menu in lovely surroundings. Underfoot can be wet so good shoes are recommended.
