Pup Obi Travels

Alderley Edge is one of those places heard about like Dunham but again never been to. With autumn in full swing, a walk round the famous Alderley Edge might be worth an Out walk.

The autumn colours looked amazing from the start. We began in the town of Alderley Edge, making a good point for walks to meet and then explore the Edge and woodland. Trees covered in yellow and orange leaves really made the walk beautiful and good weather was an added bonus.

Some walks I would scout out before hand. But some like the Dunham one had to sort of make up using a map.  Alderley Edge was pieced together from a brief visit and maps and worked out fine. Think one path I was rather confused on, but any walk down here is never a wrong one as the place is so nice to explore.

As we ascended up through the woodland, we got some, great views north over this part of Cheshire. Which cron The Edge where everyone gathered again views east can be gained. Not as impressive as some places been to over the years, as though I am sure they would have been, but despite it being a glorious sunny day, there was an autumn haze which limited the view.

Our route took meandering through the woodland that covers this hillside, admiring the varying colours in the trees and made for some atmospheric and interesting photos.

It’s no wonder there are so many stories and legends surrounding Alderley Edge. The whole walk felt intriguing as we walked around through the landscape. The varying rocks, cracks in the grounds hidden nooks. All kinds of stories could be created over the years as man lived and worked this landscape.

The last leg of the walk took us away from Alderley Edge back to the town, following some of the lanes and fields to the West of the Edge. I really enjoyed the walk as did those who came along too. Some people had visited the Edge before and knew it well and stories about it. For me, a new place for pup to visit and certainly will come back again.
