Ashworth Moor

With views across Rochdale, Ramsbottom, Manchester and Bury, Ashworth Moor reservoir offers a peaceful circular walk, with access to longer and more challenging trails across the Pennines.  

Located less than an hour away from Bury, Rochdale and Blackburn and accessible by public transport, it's a great place to walk the dog or spend some time with the family.  

A great spot for bird watchers, you might spot Raptors such as Merlin, Kestrels and Buzzards. There is also a great variety of aquatic species including Cormorants, Teal and Goosanders.
