Initially leaving the Ogden reservoir heading south we will be climbing up to Higher Ogden and Ogden Edge before dropping back down to pick up the scenic Rochdale Way to follow a route around the North side of the valley.

A great short walk with lovely views of the surrounding countryside.

The walk is approximately 4.5 miles with 750 ft of ascent , a reasonable level of fitness required
